Angry Insurance

So, I've had my jeep now for about 2 weeks now and still can't get it on the road. I have been to the MTO office about 5 times and am now hung up on insurance. Intact is willing to take me for about $358 a month but they want pics. State Farm quoted me at $410(they dont know its lifted yet). It seems nobody will take a lifted vehicle. I am 18 (19in dec.) with a clean driving history I don't understand this. Where does everyone get their insurance? p.s. theres about a 4-6" suspension lift, 3" body lift is coming out. Pics to come for my previous thread.

only pics no big deal. I have 87 yj my insurance had no trouble with lifted jeep..I think age might have something to do with it. I'm 35 now. Much more mature now (when the kids are with me ).

In que it's high when ur under 25 but nothing like the rip off prices ur paying in Ont. I have 2 vehicles and pay under 500 per yr total and there both full protection Possible u can get put as a rider on some relatives insurance like a parent this may bring ur policy price down. Is this going to be driven on the road or just for offroading (trailer queen) this will help the insurance too. Other is I don't how it works in Ont but if u use ur vehicle for work they charge more for insurance here in que. U probably want it as a daily driver Others may come in an suggest ins companies and what there paying. Good luck

we get hit hard especially in this area of ontario.. tourist accidents drive the rates up up up! "niagara/gta"
