How can I get a resonable insurance as a visitor?

Hi guys,

I thought you might be able to help me figure out how to get a resonably priced car insurance?

I have a vacation home in FL, and would like to keep a car there so I don't have to rent all the time. I need to tow, and rental companies don't allow that, which is one problem. To pay $1500 for the rentalcar per month is the other problem.

So, I'm looking at crappy Ford Expeditions, or Dodge Rams, between $4-7 k. That would allow me to have only the minimum third party coverage, meaning I don't have to worry about loosing too much money since the car itself is not covered.

Imagine the surprice when I get a quote on over $3000 a year from Progressive! I checked the difference if I had a FL drivers license (I only have my swedish one), and it was only 30 %, which is less than anticipated.

So, anyone that could help me to figure out what to do? I don't believe all the people driving old beat-up cars pay that much money for the insurance....

I just need to figure out if it is possible to get a resonably priced insurance, and if so what I need to do.

Please let me know!


Thanks,

Johan
