Default How much is everyone paying for Insurance?

I just got my insurance premium coverage sheet. I am in Massachusetts and have a clean driving record. My Jeep is $615.00 per year, which I think is high given that my wife's 08 Sequoia is less at $609.00 per year and that SUV cost $25K more than my Jeep. I just don't get it. How much are other paying for their JK annually in insurance coverage?

Not really complaining that it is high, but rather why it is higher than my more expensive vehicle on the policy. I do remember paying $1,200 a year for insurance as well, but that was when i was in my 20's and had a few speeding tickets. Turning 40 does have its privileges - but I guess not in NJ

I was actually pretty happy with my insurance. The brand new JK was $80/year cheaper than my 05 liberty.

hte insurane companies dont charge you by cost of the vehicle, its all has to do with accidents in that vehicle, the amount stolen, replacement parts and so on....a mustang gt would be more then your expensive suv also, but costs 30k less, can you guess why? lol

I had AAA Keystone for the longest time and they were always the cheapest for me in PA outside Phila., in the burbs. Also in my 40's with clean driving record.

The last year they got crazy and charged me 1400 for the year on my JK, for not even having high limits.

I recently changed to Geico, for 500 a year less with higher limits and better payment plan.

It pays to shop around come renewal time.
