A few years ago I used to go through one of those insurances brokers - deal for several different companies. No accidents, violations moving or otherwise, no claims, clean record. Started out at $325.00 for 6 months on a new '94 Dodge pickup, but every 6 months goes up about $25.00. Everyone else says theirs goes down, mine goes up. I write it off as inflation. Then I get a premium notice from some other insurance company for like $725.00 for 6 months on the same truck. I never contacted those guys in the first place, so I tossed it in the trash. A month goes by, I get a late notice from them, $725.00 plus late fee. I call them, they say my insurance broker chose them to be my insurance company?!?! I call the insurance broker, they say that my then current company (Prudential) was obsorbed by the new company (MetLife), and that's what happened. Theres a number on my insurance policy for Prudential, so I call them and they tell me that they're still Prudential, have nothing to do with MetLife, and that my broker cancelled my insurance with them. I called my broker (Insure One) and tell them of my conversation with Prudential, and they finally admit that they just took it upon themselves to move me to the much more expensive company, although the coverage was the same with both companies. I BLEW A FRIGGIN GASKET. "No accidents, no claims, no blotches on my record, and you nearly double my rates to what? Suppliment your bads drivers?", to which they basically admitted that's what'd happened. Then they asked me if I'd like them to shop for something more in the range of what I was paying before they did that?!?! "No dumba$$, find me one that charges 3 times as much because I'm a nice guy and stupid as he..! What the fxxx do you think?". I fired them all and went straight to State Farm on the trucks, home, tractors, scooter. No more screwing with a "insurance broker" again, just one real insurance company. Mark

Today's Featured Article -
Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
