Agent - Damn right we can't. I don't know how things are done at Progresso'...But here at State Farm we are old fogies and consider typing a thing of the future (Typewriter anyone?), hence we DON'T even have the option to type in your model. Sorry a little self humor. Anyhow it pre-populates based on the VIN. No typing needing here...Screen shot directly from my office. You have something different? I would consider the above a phone rep. employee FAIL imo...

I used to have it spelled like that in my sig as a joke, the E was bolded/italicized and people still sent me PM's out the *** telling me I misspelled it. I finally had to change it after my mailbox got stuffed a few times.

Ron, I'm sure Progressive Insurance isn't concerned about the incorrect spelling of an old old wooden ship.
