EVERY single one of their commercials suck donkey balls, and I would never even consider them for insurance.

A former co worker lives in town and a neighbor hit his parked car. He had Progressive insurance.

When it was renewal times, they informed him they would NOT be renewing his policy since his vehicle was involved in a claim. The neighbor's insurance paid for ALL repairs.

I will never consider progressive for anything.

I'm sure I could save a few bucks on insurance, but I like having a local agent with a real office in my town where I can deal with them.

Just had a power outage for about two hours. When the TV came back on, guess which commercial was on. DAMN!

Every time that one comes on TV, my wife and I simultaneously say "I hate this commercial."

Progressive insurance was owned by a Progressive liberal who supported far left efforts for decades. I did not use them due to that reason. Their commercials are the suck as well.

Same.

Small town, ~3,000 people and ~28,000 in the entire county.

Farm Bureau for me for everything - home, auto, life, etc.

I was thinking the very same the other day! The one commercial that I will make every effort to change the channel while it plays out and then go back to the channel.
