    They put you down for the discount of having a CDL for 2 years. Have you had it longer? $27,000 for liability seems insane. Why are you looking to pay that much? Are you hauling hazmat or cars?

    Yea. I don't want them lying and I end up getting dropped. I have just accepted it because I haven't gotten any quote below $18,000 and those were before I even got a DOT number. Now that I have gotten one it seems like the process has gotten even more difficult.

    That's in the same general area we'd be for full coverage if we could write in SC.

    I got a quote back from Nationwide for $23,000 for $1m liability 100k cargo. I also called Progressive earlier and they are starting back up on the 29th

    I tried to chat them last week and got no response then I saw where they responded to someone on Facebook that they need 2 years experience so I threw in the towel on them.

    I bet when Progressive gets back in the game there rates will be even higher than when they left.

    Progressive started up this morning. I got a quote for just liability and it was for $20,000 that was without cargo.
