Sweet. I'd set up an outrigger on that ATV, cruise alongside of the creek and kill two birds with one stone if I were you.

"15 minutes could save you 15% or more."

Or in my case $124/month, which is $1488/year.

Oh, but I'm not going with the Gecko. He only saved me $10 per month.

Oh, and thats the same coverage, same $500 deductible, and ADDED "Extra Equipment Coverage" up to $1,500.

PS.. What do you think about the equiptment coverage? Its supposed to cover extras that wouldnt normally show up under the trucks value, like my gauges, tuner, etc.

I guess the thing to do is to weigh the additional cost of the equipment coverage against the value of the equipment to determine how long it will take to equal that value, and see if it's worth it to you.

Good idea. It costs 144 per term, in this case 6 months. At that rate it would take 10 months to break even so maybe I'll add it for now then remove it when I renew.

I went with it, and I think it was only a few bucks. For me the question is, what will they cover? I think it is meant for stereos, wheels, and bed covers, that kind of stuff. Will they cover gauges, GPS, tuners? I don't know, and the fine print wasn't much help.

I'm pretty sure mine wasn't nearly that much. That would not have been worth it to me.

Put 150 bucks in a bank account every six months after that and insure yourself

Yeah, that's 20%/year of the coverage. What a ripoff.

I just checked. I have $1,000 coverage and it did not cost extra. I guess that means I could not have removed it even if I wanted too.

I bet I could get away without it and IF something happened I could just produce a receipt of the extras and it would get covered.
