Hey, if this helps, I was looking at a larger truck and was told the value of the truck determines the amount they charged for insurance, I'm brand new to the hauling game too, I got a quote for $950.00 a month for a truck valued at $80K with a $1000.00 deductable that also had a cumlative deductable so if more then one thing happened like an accident and cargo damage I only paid the one deductable. I'm looking at cheaper trucks but you may want to boost your HP to a little bigger then a Duelly.. I have been looking at Freights and K/W's and Petes all the mid sizers but they seem pretty cheap with lower miles. I hope this helps. TD

Call progressive insurance. They can ansewer all the cost issues that you might have. My quote was $120/m, with no freight ins, as I wasn't hauling general comodities. The specs were '97 suburban, and 2010 car trailer, hauling sawdust and scrap steel. I did get discounts for having a commercial license (5yrs), and other insurance through them as well (multi-policy).
