    not bad! What amounts did you insure your equipment for?

    I think progressive will have the majority of the trucking market real soon if they dont already..

    At your rate u obviously dont have any tickets! Becareful! One ticket will double your rate!
    Insurance companies use anything to justify jacking up your rate! Make more money...

    I just ran a quote as I am a company driver but for one truck and trailer with Progressive default coverages it was just shy of $10,000 holy smokes!!! I don't even have a single ticket!!! I was able to get the quote down to a $1800 a year but I am pretty sure I would not want to drive around the block with the coverage amounts that gave me!

    I have never checked Progressive because of their radius deal, but that is half what I paid last year. No tickets wrecks etc.

    I do auto transport, which is typically higher, but should NOT be double.

    Autos will easily give you a huge increase over some ham and egger hauling generic freight in a van. Rates also depend on your base state. I looked into hauling cars on my flat back in the day and my cargo ins would have doubled.
