RE: Car insurance in Wyoming: who actually treats you right?
I hear you. I broke down halfway between Casper and Douglas during a snow squall, and even with coverage, it took almost four hours for a tow. Guess that’s just Wyoming sometimes. Still, I’d rather have the plan than not...
RE: Running out of gas and waiting forever for help
I get where you’re coming from, but honestly, I’ve found the “miles left” thing to be surprisingly accurate for me - at least on my usual routes. There was one time I pushed it a little too close, like 8 miles left on th...
RE: Saving a few bucks on insuring your vintage ride

RE: Classic car insurance and the annual mileage cap - worth it?
I ran into this exact thing last year - thought I’d never hit the 2,500 mile cap, then a couple of road trips later, I was scrambling. Upping the mileage cost me a bit more, but honestly, it still worked out cheaper than...
