Bundling isn’t always the slam dunk they make it out to be. I’ve actually run the numbers a couple times—USAA, Geico, State Farm, you name it. Sometim...
Yeah, this is exactly what got me. I thought I barely drove, but once I started actually checking, all those “just picking something up” runs to the s...
Yeah, I get what you mean about “playing bumper cars” downtown. Parking’s a nightmare and people drive like they’ve got somewhere better to be. I used...
Man, I hear you on the safe driver tracker thing. I tried one of those a couple years back—felt like I had a parole officer riding shotgun. Every time...
