Wrote this Evo guy last week and with the EVo only, his rate was $1600, but with a second vehicle it dropped to $1200 for both because the Evo was rated at the full adult rate. It was actaully cheaper to cover two vehicles as opposed to one.
Ahhh no wonder I just got quoted such a sick rate. I called NJM to "scope out" the possibility of keeping my Jeep and getting a 370. I told the rep to put the Jeep on just liability since it's pd off and 6yrs old now and list the 370 as a pleasure vehicle...My rate was just $500 more than I am paying right now for full coverage on the Jeep.
