Insurance in 2018

Progressive quoted me $12,000 a year for bobtail insurance just three years ago! With a clean driving record!

 

I am being dead nuts serious, BOBTAIL on a 2008 International! I about fell over when the guy quoted me that. I told him I was not looking for cargo and liability, but BOBTAIL. he said he knew, and that was their going rate. I hung up on him.

Back in the early 2000's I had bobtail and coverage on two trailers, through Progressive, for $800 a year. I no longer deal with Progressive, for anything.

 

Yep, I believe that... The reason I lease to a carrier, no way I am going to pay that kind of money to run my own freight. And my stuff is paid for. It is not only you Bob, or your locale.

 

No sweat Bob, I hope this gets sorted out for you! And yes, we are all in the same boat. Good LUCK!
