one new windshield covers about 5-6 yrs of comp coverage with a Zero deductible. And thats down here in Louisiana where I'm told our rates are higher than the rest of the world. I've had at least 5 windshields replace and 3 repaired on all my cars over the last 15yrs. Only one on the vette.

If you don't put a ton of miles on your car (most of these companies max out mileage at 7,500/year or so) this may be a good way to go - you may find that you're saving over your current policy and that you've guaranteed yourself value if something happens.

Collision and Comprehensive are usually sold together. Not sure if they can be bought separately. To keep the premiums down, carry as high a deductible as you can. Sometimes a $1000 deductible can make a big difference in the premiums. Put that $1000 away in some sort of savings plan so it earns money but is still accessible.

I keep full coverage on the '97 Vette, but I don't usually do that past 10 years. The Vette still has enough value, besides, the $1000 deductible isn't a problem. I could put it on a credit card that I carry a zero balance on if I didn't have the cash in the checking account. The Corvette is about $30 a year cheaper than the '05 Pontiac Aztek it replaced, I'm sure being 62 has some to do with that.

My insurance is $54 a month with high premiums and full coverage including the smalls mods. I couldn't imagine anyone not being abe to have full coverage.
BTW I'm a 27 single male so if I can get it that cheap I imagine 90% of the people on this board are paying less.

Mine is paid off and I maintain full coverage with full glass. The only thing I changed recently was the deductable which I upped to 1K. With State Farm my annual premium is about 950.00, thats with the multi car and multi line (house) and all the other discounts for safe driving, etc. I have shopped around and thats pretty much the best price I could get.
