Be real careful. Those first few years you actually don't get any cverage, they take your money & use county averages & then apply a penatly discount to your coverage because you are new.

Back in the day the 1st year the fella talked me into better coverage, spend more. Turned out we had a drown out year, my yields were 1/2 of n=ormal.
