good, and willing to insure a straight truck sometimes are not both avaliable. Try Great West, or Progressive.

As mentioned, you really have to shop this.
Many things will affect the rate and coverage.
Age of truck
Age of driver and experience (driver must be 21 for interstate)
type of liability and coverage
haz-mat considerations (expensive on a single policy)
And of course.....driving record
Hope that helps

If you are going to haul any HazMat that will throw a wrench in things with some Ins. Co. I use the folks that advertise on here for one of my trucks and the other I get through the carrier where the truck is leased. Try Them they are on here advertising on one of the pages, HOME PAGE I think. TAI or may its TIA. They were my best rate and covered HAZMAT and any distance. Progressive would not do all of that and they were very expensive.

Lawrence, Thanks that is correct and it is who I am using on one of my trucks. They are fantastic for me and my needs. I highly reccommend them. I used them when I was at Tri State as well.

Lawrence, Just opened my mail. I have just been informed my truck with E1 will now also be insured via TIA. How wild is that?
