Hi,
About to purchase a Westy. Long search, but think we found the one!
Question about insurance. Obviously these vehicles go for much higher then NADA bluebook (which is around $34k). And even looking at some insurance company's valuations (more like $22k), I have some concern about trying to get it covered for the full purchase price.
I realize some insurance companies offer "Agreed Value" vs. "Actual Cash Value", but being in Massachusetts, we have only a single choice for RV insurance, Progressive. On their website they state it will be an ACV policy, however their website also let's me put in a higher value, and adjusts the premium, implying an Agreed Value. When I call and try to speak to someone, I rarely get anyone who can comprehend what I am talking about, and when I asked for the actual insurance policy to review before purchase, they said they don't do that, which seems very odd to me (can only see the policy after you pay). Certainly Progressive is a large company, and not likely trying to pull a fast one on me, but for boats, I have always been able to review the policy wording before purchase, which would also specifically define whether it is ACV or Agreed.
Has anyone else run into this questions/concern?
