RE: Cutting my car insurance bill in half - didn’t think it was possible here
I get where you’re coming from, but is snapping a pic of your odometer really that much more work than dealing with the usual paperwork and phone calls? I mean, I’d rather send a photo once a month than sit on hold with ...
RE: How do they actually decide when a car is “totaled”?
