RE: Saving cash just for driving less? Didn’t think it was real
Title: Saving cash just for driving less? Didn’t think it was real Honestly, a bit of both. I started tracking miles last year and at first, it felt empowering - like I was finally seeing where all those little trips ...
RE: Best ways to snag insurance discounts in Alaska: driving record vs. bundling?
I hear you on the telematics - my last insurer tried to sell me on it, but I just couldn’t shake the feeling my car would be tattling every time I braked a little too hard for a squirrel. Bundling’s worked out okay for m...
RE: Car insurance in Wyoming: who actually treats you right?
I’ve wondered the same thing - are these apps really about promoting safer driving, or just another excuse to nudge premiums up? I get the logic behind tracking, but it feels like they’re not built for places like Wyomin...

RE: How I managed to stack discounts for military student drivers
I get where you’re coming from about persistence, but I’m not convinced it’s always the best use of time. I’ve tried the “hang up and call again” approach, and honestly, after the third or fourth rep, I started to wonder...
RE: Finding affordable car insurance after 65 in kansas - anyone else struggling?
I get what you mean about that “watched” feeling - those apps just made me second-guess every turn, and honestly, I’m not convinced the savings are worth the extra stress. Reviewing coverage is smart though. I’ve cut bac...
RE: Little-known trick with Progressive’s roadside help
Little-known trick with Progressive’s roadside help I’ll admit, I used to roll my eyes at the “carry your own boards” advice - felt like one of those things hardcore folks say just to show off how prepared they are. But...
