Jerry...great tip. I have asked repeatedly for my carrier, Amica, to provide full coverage, but no go. I have a 91GL and got a quote from American Modern for 6000k and full coverage for 143.00 month!!!! $4.00 deductible! Submitted the quote to them and waiting to hear back. Thanks again for the tip. FYI-stated the value of my vanagon as 5000.00 since I just recd an offer to buy for 3500.00. Thanks, Michael 91GL 'Gringo' in San Antonio.

I recently acquired an insurance policy through "American Modern" specialty insurance. They insure classic cars and motor homes etc. There are mileage limits applied to the policy but they also offer exceptions which can be added to your policy.

I have an 88GL in excellent condition and I purchased $7500 insurance policy with 3K mile limits which I intend to upgrade. They also offer a 6K limit and "trip allowance" which does not count against the mileage total. My policy with the 3K limit is $152/yr. I intend to change my policy to 6K with EXTRAS.
I don't know any history of the company but I guess I'll find out how they do business.
