Speaking of insurance, what is the list experience with Farm Bureau? I have
three vehicles with them right now and when I went to have my house
refinanced, the refinance guy pulled my credit report and told me that Farm
Bureau had done a credit check two weeks prior. It was a red flag for the
refinance guy and caused a lot of consternation. Have any of you guys seen
the other insurance companies do the same thing? I had my M51 insured with
them but they dropped it about 2 month later saying it didn't fit their
"profile", whatever that means. I'm thinking about dropping them now.
