Towing Vehicle

I have a 45 foot Toy Hauler. I tow it with a 2012 Freightliner Cascadia. I know it's a little overkill, but it pulls and stops great. I have Progressive Insurance now. They advised me they are not going to renew the insurance. Even after I sent photos and other information that the truck is only being used to pull the toy hauler. Does anyone know of a insurance company that will write a policy that is not commercial?. The commercial policies are out of control price wise. Please Help, thank you...

I don't have any issues getting in and out. A few pull up's and it seems to be fine. Disney is tight and it worked out fine. Thank you for asking.

Fm cycle, Much like rifle calibers and hunting...there is "no such thing" as "overkill" !! It's been quite a few years since I checked, but I think that Farmers will cover Class 7/8 when licensed as private!

I completely agree, I have looked several times into getting a bigger rig. Always a great feeling to know you have it towing and braking safely controlled!
