- I'm 29, single, and right now with an '82 Toyota Pickup and an '87 Toyota
- MR2, I'm paying $1600/yr to Allstate (full coverage, $250/$500 deductible,
- 100k/300k/50k). I'm considering buying a '93 Grand Cherokee and the
- quote from my agent was an extra $192 every six months (replace the
- pickup with the Grand Cherokee).
-
- I'm getting a good driver discount, renewal discount, multiple car
- discount, and non-smoker discount right now. I believe Allstate
- gives discounts for ABS and air bag, I'm not sure my agent was
- aware that the Grand Cherokee I'm considering comes with both, nor
- do I know if the fact that it has an alarm system is worth a discount
- either. I'm going to shop around for a better rate, but I've got
- a couple tickets.
