In Hawaii a tranny is called " Ma hoo" and they're pretty cheap.

Which kind? Or both? Both could make things interesting.

Careful. Slakker might get upset with you apparently trying to horn in on his love interests...

Interesting that the word "tranny" is now a 'homonym'. (I can't make this stuff up)

Morphology.

Sorry, back to regularly scheduled programming now.

Is it $2800 just for the 996 or that account billing all your vehs?

Also, ask them to suspend liability, remove collision coverage and leave comprehensive. Comprehensive will keep you covered if the car is stolen, burns, or vandalized during your downtime.
Check your homeowners insurance, mine will cover the stolen, burns, or vandalized as long as it was on my property if this happens. Then you may not need any insurance on the car while it sits in the garage.

I once backed into a car in my truck while backing out of driveway (it was just parked in street at curb), my insurance broker told me to say that I did not set the brake and it rolled back into the other car so that my homeowners insurance would pic it up without jacking up my auto premium.

Honesty is always the best policy!
It really bothers me when people pull this kind of crap...

Really!!, like I said, I contacted my insurance and it was my agent that made the recommendation to use my home insurance policy. The insurance paid "no dishonesty or crap on my part"

Umm, if you told your home owner's agent that the accident happened in a manner than what actually happened and filed the claim through them, then that is insurance fraud and very bad.

Now if you continued to file the claim through the car insurance, then yes you did the correct thing (though you really should have reported the agent for encouraging insurance fraud).

Nothing like a good ole felony for what is ultimately a lifetime rounding error.

texcwa - Oh crap, you touched a nerve. Here, I'll distract them with the only thing that will draw more ire:

Hey guys, today I was driving my car over 100 mph on the street when I . . .
