    How old is your company? That will be the biggest issue and not so much the time you have driven.

    You may try Great West. I went with them after having progressive for 3 years and I like them. I had one claim but was other peoples fault and I had to file on mine. Not sure if you will have a problem with a real claim on it.

    If Great west can’t help you. Try Northland. My agent’s Licensed in Michigan and Ohio. Maybe Indiana. I’ve had a couple parking lot incidents. Both times I backed up into a 4 wheeler that got in close behind me, in a blind spot on my ICC bumper. $2500+ damage each time. Never got increased. Never even got any follow up call or heard anything after the initial calls. They were easy going.

    I went Great West, through an agent by the OKC stockyards that specializes in truck insurance. Crawford Phillips. The guys name is Jeremy Hoegger.

    I've heard the name Northland many times too.

    What this guy said. Great west and northland are good to go. Progressive is just trying to recoup and make some profit on your claim. Normal.
