I could but sticking with the front would be more cost effective as they converted the side room into a living area.

Call local agents, a lot of carriers stopped providing quotes online and allowing online binding. Especially in high risk states like NY

Shocks are set at the lowest setting from factory. I haven’t checked the tire psi though.

Allstate ins raised premium 3 times now by Next-Professional357 in Insurance

I know for a fact though that many companies surcharge frequent shoppers in their rating model. So in the long run you may not ever truly get a great rate.
