 foget it.......whatever you drive, the premiums are going to be 20-25% of 
 the cars value. If you dont take the collision or loss-of-use or whatever 
 coverage they find a way to boost the risk factor" so the cost of the 
 comprehensive/liability alone works out the same. 
  
 getting rid of the "mandatory" insurance and returnng to the old ininsured 
 motorists fund is yet another reason to light the pitcforks, grab the 
 torches, quelch the muskets and storm queers park.
