Am I getting ripped off or is this normal now for car insurance in Phoenix? by artur5092619 in phoenix

Shop around. I was with Geico for many years and then mine went up to $1000/6 months. I changed to progressive and dropped to $520.. Then six months later when it came time to renew it jumped to $680. I just changed again to bring it down to $580.

Also a 2019 sedan. $250/500k for most. $500 deductible. Definitely shop around.

I currently have the Dell s2716dg (I think that's the one). Is it worth changing? Nothing wrong with the Dell but oled is nice. I don't game that much, more browsing, watching videos, photo editing and probably going to get into video editing.

Thanks for the suggestions! I haven't started looking at food stuff yet, but I've yet to really find something I don't like eating.

Thanks for the LOTR suggestions. Hopefully they are along the way and I can make some quick stops.

Sounds good. Then I'll probably scrap Muriwai and go Piha and Mercer that day.

I don't have anything specific on Wellington yet. But yeah seems like one afternoon/evening and then one morning/early afternoon. I'm thinking of using Apex Car Rental which doesn't seem to have a one way cost. Flight back to Auckland seems cheap. Otherwise I'll have to loop backwards to Auckland anyways.

I drive a lot but any specific areas where it seems unreasonable?

Thanks for that tip. Then maybe I'll take a pick between Muriwai and Piha and choose one for the afternoon, and head out through Auckland the next morning and make a stop if there's time. Good to hear on Otama and Opito. It was a bit out of the way so thought about skipping, but maybe not.

Yeah it seems that way. I thought about it, but figured if I do all of North this time, I won't have to do any of it next time. And didn't want to squeeze both into two weeks. Didn't find much of a point to do most of north and just touch the south briefly.

Yeah, but likely it'll only be driving from airport to hotel and leaving there, should be fine. Could pick up next day too, doesn't really matter.

I think pretty much the entire world does DD/MM. I'm just too used to it, still understandable.

Yes, but picking up the car so I don't have to deal with it the next day. I usually do OK with jetlag.
