Wtf does your neighbor drive that insurance is $350 per month on it? A Ferrari?

No kidding, I pay less than $100 month to insure 2 cars with State Farm. I've never had an issue with them paying a claim, and my agent meets with me every few years to go over my options and every single time I walk away with better coverage and less payment.

Regular Ford 2015? Nothing fancy at all.

Male under 25 with anything over 150hp will make you pay a fuck ton.

I thought the same. Also it's much higher for young males under age 25. Tbf testosterone is a bitch and that demographic causes a lot of the most extreme preventable accidents.

Which ironically encourages people to ride bikes! If only that were not nearly a suicidal activity in the USA in so many places... 😒

Could be multiple vehicles or they have a kid on the policy.
