Depends on your age, driving record, county, coverages, etc. If you are a young guy, 600 a month for full coverage is pretty fair, even 800 isn't too bad

That's about right. For my Z28, 3.8 and Trailblazer it's about $300 a month with State Farm. They are awesome. No complaints.

well, get the $100/month coverage.

When you turn 25 you'll get another HUGE discount.

Go with State Farm in Texas, they have the better rates.

What's your credit score?

WTF platinum package? Read the fine print the next time you sign a contract...$$$ down the drain...go State Farm bro. and take advantage of the multiline discount, academic achievement (if in school), steer clear program, and drug/alcohol awareness education coarse. Insurance $$$ rewards come with work/common sense driving records, not detadee contract signing.

You can get a free quote online @ www.statefarm.com OR by calling 210-967-6800.
