Dude you guys need to give me a call! I'm a Farmers insurance agent..About 80% of the time i can beat prices and provide better coverage..If you own a house and need home owners insurance or even rent a apt. and want your property covered i can 99% of the time beat it..The discounts Farmers gives for multible lines can't be touched..Dont get me wrong here though,coverage is what matters..I dont ever sell the state minimal coverage which is 20/40/15 which is what alot of agents do..It's complete bull ****. There isn't a hole lot of 15k cars driving around these days ..Heres my info!!

Payed 1300 with progressive for every 6 months for the lightning and the camaro, I'm 27 with no tickets. They raised it 70 dollars a month b/c of a 800 dollar claim. Got a quote from mercury insurance, freaking 650 every six months. They gave me a huge multiple vehicle discount, said, well you can't drive both cars at once.

I pay 108 a month for liability. I hate knowing that if I slip up my car is probably trashed though. I'm only 20 and in school so when I get a more stable job situation I plan on upping to full coverage just to cover my ***.

When I first got my car I was paying $240/month for a $750 deductible, with progressive (best we could find at the time, I was 21). After about 3/4 a year of that I switched to Farmers and my agent worked with me until we got my rates down to $105/month with a $500 deductible ($750 deductible was gonna be $85/month). Now a couple months ago, my insurance dropped again and I'm paying a about $80-85/month for $500 deductible and my own policy and I'm 23. I strongly suggest anyone in the Brazos area go see the Farmers agent on Texas ave. Tell him Will sent you.

I think mine is like $89 a month full coverage on the SS and $92 a month on my F-150 full coverage. I'm 24, but I do own a house.
