RE: Scored a Sweet Auto Insurance Deal Thanks to My Military ID
You know, I hadn't thought about dashcams potentially working against you, but that story about your friend makes sense. I get why people swear by them - especially if you're commuting daily - but angles and perspectives...
RE: just saw a story about a guy in Kansas whose car got totaled by hail, and turns out his insurance didn't cover it.
Yeah, that's the thing that gets me... who decides what's "cosmetic" anyway? Feels like insurance companies just spin a wheel sometimes. I'd push back a bit - can't hurt to question their logic, right?
RE: quick heads-up on Arkansas auto insurance basics

RE: got caught up in fraud trouble - what happens next?

RE: just saw a story about a guy in Kansas whose car got totaled by hail, and turns out his insurance didn't cover it.
Had a similar experience myself. A couple of years ago my windshield got cracked by some random debris flying off a truck on the freeway. I figured, no big deal, right? Called insurance and turns out my policy specifical...
RE: insurance companies dragging feet after storms - is this normal?
Had something similar happen after a nasty hailstorm last spring. Adjuster kept rescheduling, and meanwhile, my roof was basically Swiss cheese. I get they're swamped, but honestly, isn't this exactly what we pay them fo...
