Hi!
I switched from GEICO to Progressive a few years ago (totally different cars) and saved
a LOT! I can't remember the actual percentage. I never had a problem with GEICO either, it's just that Progressive lured me away with low rates.
However, in two years, my premiums increased (taking into account changing cars) around 25%-35% PER YEAR!!
So watch out for that bait and switch!
I have since dropped Progressive and switched to Great American Insurance Group for the 2001 Odyssey & 2001 Civic and put
the 1990 Mustang on a separate policy @ Geico.
With Progressive, I would have been paying at least $3200/year. This would be paying in full for 6 months (1600+/6 months). It would have been more if I were making monthly payments! They'd probably increase the premium again in 6 months! :-(
Unless they bait & switch, with Great American it's $750/ 6 months for the 2 Hondas. The Mustang pays ~$690/year with GEICO.
I live in South Florida. I think we have high insurance premiums compared to other areas.
Oh yeah, so the point is, go ahead and switch, but be aware of the possibility of switching again soon.
