Yes, those “shared cost” letters are routinely sent out to see if you may have additional insurance as well that may contribute to your coverage.

No doubt the majority of the increase is your son’s recent accident and his responsibility for it. The insurance company is positioning themselves for more to come from a young male driver under 25. Nothing you can do. If you shop around the accident will follow you like an abandoned dog.

My UPS guy asked me one time if I could warn him when I had more sets of wheels coming. Truth. Ahahaha!

that’s Lenny Robinson. Dude’s a legend. He died on the highway while dealing with a dead engine. Mowed down by a Camry.

For some reason I read this with the voice of Rodney Dangerfield. 😂

Go Illini!

One of the owners got Carroll to come back from the dead and sign inside that engine bay. That’s gotta be worth a few bucks more. :facepalm:

I see he’s concentrating the spray on the part that gets the dirtiest. Momma is unfortunately getting the blowback because she decided to stay in the “car”.

changing market dynamics as Mercedes pumps the brakes on going all EV by 2030. https://mbworld.org/how-tos/slideshows/mercedes-pumps-the-brakes-on-plans-to-sell-only-evs-by-2030-966477?utm_source=202431&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=content

This is what Ford should be working on. Simple battery swap system. Buy the car with a “rented” battery lowering the cost. Apartment dwellers with no charging option at their home becomes moot. Battery swap takes 3 minutes for full charge, not 30-45-60, etc. No battery depreciation at resale...

Ford cuts prices of electric Mustang Mach-E by up to $8,100 https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/20/ford-cuts-prices-of-electric-mustang-mach-e-by-up-to-8100-.html?__source=iosappshare%7Ccom.apple.UIKit.activity.CopyToPasteboard

Ford had a 43% bump in hybrid sales for January year over year. I think plug-in hybrid has shown to be a great bridge from ICE to full EV, as sales indicate. Ford is reassessing its EV plans, including vertical battery integration...

Unfortunately, the economics is still hard to justify and it should have been getting better by now. The cost of most EVs are still high and the insurance companies are now charging big premiums for them. Insurance companies never miss an opportunity to gouge. A big let down to everyone involved...

Disability insurance. Every young homeowner should have this along with a healthy TERM life insurance policy to cover all of the essential expenses needed, while leaving money to your family to help with their loss. Neither of these are expensive when you are young. I always carried $2M in term...

Drama vs funeral 😬

Big story here in Chicago with our extreme temperatures. Several Teslas going dead while parked at the airports, requiring a tow to a charger. This is really not acceptable. I was convinced that an EV would be added to my fleet, but now I have legitimate concerns.

I agree. You are getting ripped off. Typically your 20% comes after the discounts are calculated. You pay 20% of that net cost. Maybe it’s different in the state where you live, however. That is a very bad insurance deal your employer negotiated or your state allows the insurance companies to...

You are allowed one annual wellness checkup with Medicare and it should be covered with the exception of maybe any special blood tests beyond the norm. Maybe you hadn’t paid your 2023 Medicare deductible yet, and that was passed onto you? I never get any extra charges for my annual wellness...

👍 He indicated that once they removed the bell housing and saw the hairline crack, the engine had to be replaced. If Ford was paying for it, okay. Unfortunately, this was all on his dime and he said yeah sure? I’m kinda confused.

I saw that auction. 3 days at Sebring was all he had into it.
