Having trouble getting proper insurance for my expedition vehicle. Who do you use?

[calicamper]

Vehicles that appreciate or gain value via added gear should be insured based on a set replacement value not a typical auto insurance. We have always used state farm but we also have sizable leverage having multiple properties and multiple family members via the same agent. As a result they will nearly write any sort of coverage we want. My sailboat appreciated in value as such we had coverage based on a set amount. Which I had upped twice over the 9yrs I had the boat. It sold for exactly what it was insured for. Keep in mind this coverage is not bare bones cheap auto insurance. It costs more! But your loss is minimal if a LuluLemon wearing soccer mom plows into you in her Escalade.

Many multi country trips often end up being self insured at least for portions of the trip due to cost.

Our truck (Oshkosh HEMTT conversion) is with Progressive. We didn't have any issue with it. I have quite a bit of other equipment with them though so that might have helped.

AAA out of Idaho was happy to take my money...
The only requirement was that I did not live in it full time.

I just got the cancellation letter from Progressive. I tried Hagerty, they said no. It has been a tiresome task to find a company. I will let you know how things go with state farm.

I called them and there wasn't anyone named Chad that worked there any longer! Are you still using them for an insurance provider?

Hi all,

I have a 2005 U500 with a custom camper built on the back. it is registered as a motor home. Most insurance carriers are not interested. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

No idea, but that is a cool rig...any more photos? Interior shot? Link to a description?

Depends on your net worth but I would recommend $1million for liability.

If you are going for $1m umbrella get the quote for $2m. It was only a couple hundred extra for me and worth the peace of mind.
