I called State Farm, and they can provide the exact same coverage for $311. I called Allstate, and they just told me to switch to State Farm. Apparently, insurance companies don't care anything about keeping customers. I tried other companies, but most of them will not provide the high liability coverage amount that I want, and they don't have a local office. Most of my premium cost is for liability. An umbrella policy is an option, but it is not cost effective. Has anyone had a similar experience?

age, credit, vehicle, location all play a part in this. I've had State Farm for decades. I can tell you that none of my vehicles are that that low for 6 months. I believe the lowest is 427. With that said, I also don't carry minimum coverage. It's not worth it in this state due to the types of drivers I was advised years ago to go on the higher end, and I'm glad I did. I also carry them for homeowners and umbrella.
