Why getting older and paying more for car insurance?

Did you know that your car insurance can and will go up as you get older? Ok, not everyone, but unfortunately for our senior friends, it does. Statistics have shown that as we progress through our senior years, our insurance experience gets worse, thereby causing higher premiums. Be aware and shop your insurance. Different companies rate seniors at different levels. Ask your insurance professional for advice.

Got low profile tires?

Commiserating with a fellow 'low profile tire' owner today. This tells the whole story, one of my cars has had 3 replacement tires since we purchased it just 4 months ago. At between $400 and $500 a piece, we did well to have purchased the insurance coverage at about $450 for 3 years. I recommend the same any and all other fellow 'low profile tire' owner.
