I have never reduced coverage when I paid off my cars.

I only did this when my car value met my deductible. I often called my '95 Nissan Altima my "$1000 Car". If I hit someone I paid $1000, if someone hit me I got $1000. I loved that car and still wish I had it.

Hah - that's 1 kid. I could dig up the thread where I was QQing about when they were BOTH in daycare. The one year where they overlapped, both in daycare, it cost me around $25-26k.

See above where I mentioned some other debt to pay off. :\ It killed me to finance some of it, but I had to. HELOC - at leats I've got a crazy low rate on it.

I have never reduced coverage when I paid off my cars.

Full coverage, and staying that way. Insurance as a married adult isn't anywhere NEAR the rape it was as a teenager.
