Apparently the tC is a high-risk car for insurance companies
#45
older folk may file more claims ( most kids don't want anyone to know they were in an accident ), but i can tell ya that most bad accidents in this area have involved younger drivers, teens thru 20's ( regardless of actual cause ). Insurance for me is far cheaper now then when i was a teen/20 something. And i can say that our lower premiums have more to do with us not having a single ticket or accident, then based strictly on our age. So if low insurance is a goal--don't speed ( or don't get caught... )
as for the TC, it was one of the cheapest cars policy wise that my wife was looking at, even after we added the sc.

Don't own a tC but I received the same from State Farm today too for my xB. I'm calling up my agent on Monday why my insurance went up for an MPV. I'll start paying $552/6 mo (no ticket or accidents). Maybe statefarm has something against all Scions and automatically increase Scion owners insurance rates.

You could always trade your xb in on a nice ford.

State Farm tried to raise my rates about 75 bucks/6 mo. Given that I've never had a claim, accident, or violation, I told them it was BS. They gave me the same line about the car increasing 2 or 3 categories in risk (agent said he's almost never seen one go up more than one).
I switched to Allstate, which ended up being the same as what I used to pay at State Farm but Allstate gave me higher coverages. My homeowner's was also cheaper through Allstate, so I ended up saving about $200/year.

I've been checking into quotes myself. I've recently been cleared of a suspension on my license (long story, wouldn't have happened if the lovely PennDOT woulda sent me my darn papers)... and here's what I got so far:
State Farm: wouldn't give me a quote
AllState: $550 for 6 months
Esurance: $760 for 6 months (I hear they're not the best insurance company?)
And I was gonna check out Progressive.
25, female, live in the boondocks of PA (Southern York County), a suspension that recently (very recently) came off, 1 accident (8 years ago), and the last traffic ticket I got was 6 years ago. Those were rough estimate quotes, we'll see what I get for the tC when I go to get my ACTUAL quote.

Haven't tried Geico yet. As long as my premium through Allstate doesn't get higher when I get my ACTUAL quote, they have an AWESOME insurance package... if Geico can match that package I'm all for it lol.
Haven't seen too many tC's in York. Seen a TON of xb's... but maybe only one or two other tC's. Although I did see a SW tC in Glen Rock the other day that wasn't mine... grrrr lol.

You people have really cheap insurance. When I bought my car, as a 24 year old male in CT I was paying $1440/6 months and that's with no accidents and one ticket when I was 19. When I renewed for the year my rate went up to over 1600/6 months. During the previous year, my only claim was a someone hit and run my car while it was parked, which wasn't my fault obviously but they ripped me for it anyway. It was $850 worth of demage, my deductable is $500 so they only cut me a check for $350 yet the raise my premium about the same amount. Only other thing that happened was I got a ticket that year. Ins. Co. are a ripoff, just a money pit.

must be nice not living in new york.
all my quotes were for $1400 for 6 months. best i can get was geico for $791/6 months
this crap ____es me off. one company even wanted 4450 for the year
i do have a speeder 94/65 but that was 3 years ago and comes off soon and the other is a seat belt. And they keep quoting me with an accident at fault even though i have no accidents but my brother has one and it shows under 'Possible household drivers'
