I actually ran the numbers for a $1,000/$500/$250 deductible to see how it changed my premium and there was hardly any difference (maybe $40/year between $250 and $1000). I went with the $250 because the difference was so minute in the monthly premium. Our car is also 8 years old so that might make a difference. We don't make claims on anything under $500, but if I needed to, I could. I like the assurance. I agree.

You all had an eventful day. Seems like you're making the right decision on the deductible. My choice is to drive a car so old that I don't care what kind of dings it gets. However, I know in a year or two, I'll need a new-to-me car. Your suggestion for deductibles is very sensible. Yikes! You all had an eventful day.
