Six months ago, I researched insurance for the jeep when I started modding and offroading. I'm currently with Nationwide and have a clean record but dont have coverage off public roads. My broker reached out to several of the bigger insurers and said none of them covered vehicles when off designated public roads. I decided to take the risk and try to drive responsibly and take calculated risks. My mods are covered up to $3k. I was quoted $10k in additional mod coverage and that was going to almost double my premium and had exclusions for powertrain mods...wasnt worth it.
Fast forward to last week, a friend said Allstate will cover offroad use...so I called a local agent and they verbally said it would cover offroading as long as it's not in a competition/race. Sounded great....I then got a quote with $5k & $10k mod rider bundled with homeowners insurance that was competitive and asked to read the policy before signing up. They said they could only show me a "binder" when I came in to sign up and it wouldn't have all the fine print provisions/exclusions and the full policy would be mailed to me 1-2 weeks after signing. I asked if they could email me the verbiage in the policy that addresses offroad use and mod coverage. The lady called her "legal dept" and said they couldn't send anything in writing...it felt very sketchy, so I backed out.
Anybody else encountered this or know if Allstate actually covers offroad use?
