I don't think it matters that much.

Just took 5min on Progressive's website and got a quote for your Avalon in Gunnison for $145 for 6 months of liability only. $143 more to add comprehensive with a $1,000 deductible. $46 more to add collision with a $1k deductible. $385 total for 6 months of comp/collision coverage on your Avalon in Gunnison, and I'm 41 years old.

I've had several license suspensions and many tickets in my youth. Last ticket was probably 9 years ago.

You're either not disclosing important information for why your premium is so expensive, or you're doing insurance very wrong.

Getting a quote and purchasing insurance takes like 10min when done online. That reminds me, I should shop for insurance again since I've been with Geiko long enough that rates have crept up. New customers get the best rates. Best to always be a new customer. "Loyalty" discounts don't exist. Long term customers just pay more.
