Um... I'm not putting any sort of BS into my OBD2 port...
I assume it tracks speed an MAYBE RPM's... I also assume that most of us drive aggressively and/or have our "stretch of road" (which is of course a closed course) that we open up our cars... Sooooo... No thank you big brother Switch insurance. My State Farm BEATS the crap out of anyone's insurance rates |
I got the snapshot. I received about 7% discount because I had like 60 hard brakes during the first 30 days. It's so hard because the sport bakes are so good. And I always find myself deciding to make a hard brake or somewhat run a red light.
Other than that I don't drive it much, never between 12AM-4AM. So hard brakes play a big role in how they calculate the discount. |

I use it in my truck and just received a 21% discount with 5 hard braking instances for the month. I dont think I would want it in my Z though, I tend to brake harder more often in it. I should see what discount i get by plugging it in while the Z is in hibernation over the winter :tup:

Yes, it does track vehicle speed, but they apparently don't care about that.
They only care about "hard brakes", which as it turns out, has nothing to do with how hard you press the brakes or if you even press the brakes at all. In a sports car like this, engine braking from downshifting is enough to change your vehicle's speed quickly enough to count as "hard braking". You know it's fundamentally flawed when this doesn't matter: http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1423195174 Meanwhile, casually shifting from 5th to 4th at legal speeds slows you down too much and that causes a beep :shakes head: Don't even think of slowing down for a yellow light because the brakes on the car do their job way too effectively for Progressive - run every light that's about to turn red if you don't want it to beep at you :ugh2: |

Yeah, saw 11-06 and thought it was 2014 :-\

No Thanks. I don't need big brother insurance company looking over my shoulder.

Progressive can suck my nuts, horrible company to deal with
