Learned something new today Had a wreck last week and took my truck into the bodyshop today for repairs. Have my insurance through GEICO, and recieved an email this afternoon that they will be cancelling my policy on April 11th due to my NOS system. Had no clue that would happen. I guess the adjuster squealed on me. Will I be on some kind of black list now? Can I just pull the system off and go to another insurance company, then put it back on?
Wow! That sux! I was worried about mine to when I wrecked but the adjuster told me not to worry about it. I guess i got lucky. My bottle wasnt in the car either so I dont know if that had anything to do with it.

Yeah, I called to ream the adjuster a new one and he told me he didn't care. We figured what probably happened is when he took pictures of the engine bay, for broken plastic aorund the radiator, GEICO home office saw the system hooked to the engine and the "jig" was up. LOL! Just wonder if another insurance company will inquire to GEICO and deny me also.

Yeah, no SH*T, me either. I wanted to tell them "it's an f'ing crew cab 4x4 truck, the nitrous is just to keep up because it's such an f'ing lard ***!". I guess if I had a twin turbo big block pushing 1000hp+ that wouldn't matter, as long as it didn't have NOS.......... douche nozzles.

yeah, i had already heard that Gayco is shitty like that. Just another typical ins. company...
someone mentioned about a month ago on another forum that they used to send adjusters up to the track to get peoples plate numbers so they could see if they were insured through them and they could cancel them

Actually the solenoids under the hood are NOS brand, but they didn't call it by it's brand name they just said "nitrous oxide system", and called it "an unauthorized modification"........again........douche bags.

Got anybody you recommend? I haven't shopped for insurance in a while and have no idea who's the cheapest, best coverage, easiest to deal with, etc. I just got with "GAYCO" years ago and stuck with them just trying to be a loyal customer..... now I see where that gets me. I had two trucks, motorcycle and house on my policy so they are losing some business, and I'm sure somebody would love to have that business. This was the first claim I had EVER had, period, for anything.
that happened to a buddy of mine, SilenTXws6 on here. he had a lil accident in his TA and the isurance company saw the car, cage, 408, spray, biggs/littles, racing seats and simpson harnesses, etc. they paid for the damage and dropped the car like a hot potato lol. I think they called it "modified to the point it can never be returned to OEM specs" or some crap

Call Tommy Tran he advertises on almost all the houston boards.
I used to have Geico, theyre a good insurance company....as long as you never get into an accident and actually use your insurance. I had one minor accident after many years clean and they tried to double my premiums, I cancelled and went with allstate.
