Driver & Household Info
One adult driver in Colorado, renting, short daily driving, no rideshare or delivery. Other household members will not operate the vehicle. A prior policy had lapsed, so the goal was to keep the new premium as low as possible while starting coverage the same day.
Vehicle Details
- Vehicle: 2019 Toyota RAV4
- Ownership: Owned, paid off
- Use: Personal, errands and routine commuting
- Condition: Normal wear and tear, no reported damage
- Rideshare/delivery: None
Because the vehicle is owned outright and is the driver’s only car, the shopper chose to begin with liability only, then review add-ons later if needs change.
Coverage Selected
Colorado requires liability at or above the state minimum. The driver asked to keep limits at the minimum to control cost.
- Liability at Colorado minimums, bodily injury per person and per accident, property damage per accident
- Opted out for now: uninsured motorist, medical payments, comprehensive, collision, rental, roadside
- Note: Optional protections can be added later with a quick call if driving patterns change or additional protection is desired
Not sure which limits fit your situation? Ask us to price two or three scenarios side by side so you can see the exact monthly difference.
Price, Auto-Pay, And Paperless
The agent shopped multiple carriers. Progressive surfaced as the best blend of price and convenience for a same-day start.
- Initial payment with auto-pay enrolled: about $39 dollars to activate
- Monthly with auto-pay: about $46.83 on the 25th of each month
- Monthly without auto-pay: about $47.83
- After a profile correction in the rating system, monthly lowered slightly to about $45.49, with all other terms unchanged
Paperless delivery was enabled so policy documents, billing notices, and ID cards arrive by email. The agent reminded the driver to complete paperless confirmation in the Progressive app or on the website within the first couple of weeks so the discount remains active.
Tip, the auto-pay and paperless combination often saves a few dollars each month, small amounts that add up over six months.
Reports, Payment, And Same-Day Proof
With permission, the agent ran motor vehicle reports to finalize rating. The price stayed consistent with the estimates. Payment was processed by card, auto-pay was set for future drafts, and the e-signature packet was completed in a few minutes.
Immediately after signing, the driver received:
- ID cards by text and email for same-day proof
- Declarations page showing coverages and limits
- Payment schedule and receipt for records
- App setup instructions to create a login and confirm paperless preferences

Exclusions And Household Notes
Because carriers verify households after binding, the agent explained that any household members age fifteen or older must be listed or formally excluded. Exclusions can be added later, and doing so prevents underwriting from adding unintended drivers or changing the premium mid-term. For now, the policy was issued for the single driver and single vehicle, with exclusions to be handled if needed.
Key Takeaways / Tips For Shoppers
- Start legal, then fine-tune. Liability only keeps costs low on an owned vehicle… you can add uninsured motorist, medical payments, or physical damage later.
- Use auto-pay and paperless. Small monthly savings add up, and billing stays smooth.
- Finish paperless confirmation. Complete the quick checkbox in the app or website so the discount remains active.
- Keep details handy. VIN, license number, and any household driver info help underwriting keep your rate aligned with the quote.
- Expect clarity on fees and dates. Ask about late fees, returned payment fees, and monthly due dates so you can plan ahead.
