From what I've pieced together in this thread, it seems that if you
have a profile that indicates a small risk to GEICO, your rates are
about the lowest.

It seems that if you are a claim waiting to happen, either accident or
theft or the like, GEICO is easy to beat for service and prices.

I guess GEICO's ads that insinuate they can save most people money
aren't true.  They still favor low risk drivers, as was their previous
history before the ad campaign saying they could save almost everyone
%15 or more.

Rob.
