    That at seems really high to me. My first year was $6800 that was with a paid in full discount with progressive. Do you have a clean driving record? How old are you?

    You can't compare rates like that unless you both have the same equipment and the same coverage and about 1,000 other variables

    1927 actually! Ha

    Thats why I was curious about his age, driving record etc... In my opinion it would be hard to make money with those kind of rates/overhead.
