You folks don't know from high insurance rates... 

If you want high insurance rates, move to New Jersey.  I am paying $1225
per year on my 1991 Vanagon MV.   Granted I do have both collision and
liability, but I get "deductions" for driving less that 10 miles to work,
for having two cars insured, and for being married and over 25!!

Anyone out there pay more that $1225 per year on a Vanagon?
