I have state farm, they actually give me the best rate. Thats not saying much with 7 speeding tickets and one "racing on the highway" ticket. And they do a great job on claims. I have had them for a few years and dont plan on switching.

If they will keep you stay with em, great Co. They tend to drop "higher risks".

Higher risk? I broke the mold baby hahahahahahahahahahaha

Funny my rates have droped 30 bucks per month over the past year even after the racing on the highway ticket. I love my insurance comapny. They actually know me on a first name basis. Not sure if thats good or bad. But its nice.

I am just as qualified as any writer at any dealer to ensure that you are compensated properly for the cost of repairs to your vehicle. Actually I take that back... I am more qualified as I am liscenced in the state and write everything from motorcycles to 500k boats to 1 mill Prevost so how do ya like that!

Personal? Nah, just keeping up with the Polish Catholic. As for writing me a check, you still gonna write that check when there is no motor in the car or a rear end? Just wondering.

$100 for what my lid? I think you need to go online and see what forged internals cost on a balanced and basically blue printed motor. Oh yeah, forgot about the heads too. Here are the rods I used, only I used the ligthweight rods, which were more expensive then these.

I might let my Dennys driveshaft go for $300 after all it's only about 8 months old and has never launched with slicks. Now maybe you'll understand as to why I don't care for a settlement check that day. Gonna take a few days to rip my **** out of a wrecked car anyway.
