WOW! I paid that with USAA for 2 brand new cars (SUV & Z) plus liability for my truck in a year.

You must be real young or have a bunch of traffic tickets.

I have USAA also paying about $200 a month, my 2009 Audi A4 Quattro was about $250 and my 2008 VW GTI was $225 this is all on a clean driving record, at age 24, Also where i currently live is about~$20 more then where i did in san diego.

If you study your insurance page a bit you will find that there are deductions that you, yourself can put in, if they ask for proof though thats on you.

I have a perfect driving record and Geico wanted to charge me double what Mercury is currently charging.

also, increase your deductible. going from $500 deductible to $1000 deductible will save you around 25% in your premium cost (most of the time)

Yeah, rates vary so much between insurance companies. I'm 25 and with State Farm, my rate is "only" $450 /6 months. There are definitely decent rates to be found. (Although I do think insurance is a total ripoff.)

i'm not sure how i feel about that. i had my wheels stolen less than a month after i got my car. paying the 500 deductible wasn't very fun. 1000 feel any better. damn, geico is rippoff my freaking altima coupe 2.5s was 1100 for 6 months.

You should shop around your insurance every couple of years just to make sure you're getting the right rate.

Most quotes are free and online so it's not a ton of effort to check if your rate with other companies
