📎 [2/24/24] FROM ARTICLE AND ADVICE I AM FOLLOWING:

 

(1) Go high-maintenance. “It’s a lot less expensive and easier to maintain a vehicle than it is to repair a vehicle,” says David Bennett, senior automotive manager at AAA.

 

(2) Ask for a low-mileage discount. If you’ve recently retired or shifted to working from home, your driving mileage may have dramatically decreased, which can lower premiums.

Being an AARP member, I had already read this article. A few good ideas.

 

My insurance company doesn't have a low mileage discount but has a plethora of other discounts of which I take advantage.

    📎 (2/24/24) Me too @nctarheel , but missing the Drivewise App that knocked off alot for SAFE driving. Also had "free" magazine subscriptions. Since retiring, I NO longer drive enough miles to use the bonus. GRATEFUL "renewal" for THIS MONTH was awesome. Looks like the "ridiculous" renewal INCREASES I have been getting since 2020 (pandemic) are gone  💃💃💃
