Re: Insurance.- State Farm

["David Swingle" <dswingle@xxxx>]

A new addition to this thread which seems to come up about once a 
month. We often hear State Farm mentioned (including by me) as "DMC-
friendly". About a month ago I referred someone locally having 
difficulty, to my State Farm agent (where I've been for over 20 years 
with all my insurance). She received a nice letter from my agent 
stating that State Farm will no longer write "new business" DeLorean 
insurance. On the copy I received from my agent, the agent added a 
blind footnote that I would have no difficulty maintaining coverage 
since I already have the car, and if I was to purchase another they 
would "probably" cover it due to my long history with then. My 
current rate is $240 for the six months I drive it, and $35 for the 
six months I don't (you can tell I'm not exactly under 25).

This seems to be a recent change at the SF corporate level, and would 
explain why there seems to be many happy State Farm customers on the 
list, and others are getting turned down.
