I switched a year ago from Allstate b/c they wouldn't give me any of their promo deals, including their Good Drivers discount which requires a history with them (16 claim free clean record years not good enough?). Fortunately, my agency also carries other carriers and at least for me Travelers worked out the best, with over $800 savings over a year. I think Mike is right, so long as your record is clean, shopping every few years would make sense. My multi listing  agency even tacitly seem to suggest the same.

I get all shaky when I keep hearing that the company business model can only be sustained by growth.  That almost sounds like the federal government can only operate with a deficit.  : > ) Maybe I should be looking.  I have been with my insurance company continuously since 1962.  That's 50 years in April.  : >  )

AMICA charges me $3400/yr for an '06 Acura TL, a '98 Grand Caravan (no collision or comp) and my '93 S4.  I have 3 kids age 16 to 20, figured it would be the same everywhere.  Same coverage at Geico, $1650.  Just found out on Friday.  D'oh.
