How much do you pay for car insurance?

I don't really pay too much attention because it's monthly but I decided to add it up and we are paying close to $2800 for 2 leased trucks with the defensive driving discount. Is that high? Both of us have a clean driving record and no accidents.

If that's for the year - I think that's pretty good.

I just switched and my annual premium went down a little over $400/yr - went from almost $1700/yr to $1250/yr for one vehicle with the defensive driving course. So it seems like what you're paying is pretty good

I pay like $1500 a year with Geico. I have no tickets, no accidents. I've not done the defensive driving thing. It goes up every single year. I always say I'm going to seek out other companies, but never do.

1 car (owned); 1 SUV (leased) - both relatively new. Car is 2018; SUV is 2019. High coverage limits (300/500)

$500 deductible (vanishing so it's $0 right now)

with defensive driving; multi-policy discount

$1,400 every 6 months.

This basically very similar to us. Okay. I guess I'm on par.

I actually did the math wrong. I'm paying $2800/year

Just a tip. Call them. Bring up your valid points. If you have excellent credit, mention that too (car insurance rates go by that too).

More than likely they will try to lower it.

It is insane. Just a heads up for parents whose kids don’t drive yet as bigger kids, bigger expenses.
