car insurance rates

Just for the heck of it, I went to progressive & geico to price out one of our vehicles to see if it was cheaper than my current, and it was higher! I thought they were supposed to save more?

I found the exact same thing when I called Geico. . . . . after they kept me on the phone for what seemed like an eternity. . . . asking me every question under the sun, the rates were much, much higher than what I pay through a local agent. Crazy! Must be that gecko is making too much money for all the ads!
