Maintenance costs

[Popmom]

Of course, as stated earlier, premiums are all over the map depending on where you live, your desired coverage, and the value of your TM. However, in my experience, with all those being equal, the least expensive way to get coverage is simply as an add-on to your existing auto policy. Our premium is about $100/year that way, and always has been around that since we bought our TM when it was 7 years old.

Man. All of our insurance is with Allstate, so that is who I called first--thinking as you said it would be least expensive to add it to our existing auto policy. It was going to be $500 a year! I think it is because we are insuring 4 drivers on that policy--two of whom are teens. They don't care that my daughters won't be towing the camper. I (((think))) that is why the quote was so high with them. Progressive is who I went with. Still seems a little high, but they asked how many years of towing experience we have--which is none--so there's that.

85 bucks a year , that is for up to 15k in TM and contents

Like ShrimpBurrito, I just added my TM on to my existing auto policy with State Farm and it costs me about $100 per year. One thing I also like is that it includes road side assistance. So, if I ever have a flat (blow out), I can call them to put the spare on for me.

As for other maintenance costs, I just had some new Maxxis tires put on and while I was getting that done, I asked them to repack the wheel bearings for me. Repacking the bearings cost $85 for both wheels.

Congrats on finding your TM. I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of it.
