Insurance Increase

We went FT in July and are now South Dakota residents. License plates cost less then half of Utah plates and no State income tax. What we did find is that our vehicle insurance increased by $300.00. Why? It seems that the Comp. coverage is more costly in SD due to weather related damages. Hail was the main driver plus less people and more costly repairs.

Anyone else experience this??
  • First off I'm not a full timer I am considering it tho.
    Now I spoke with a couple that were, they did the SD thing and their health insurance went up $500 a yr. they then changed to FL and it dropped below what it was before they were Sd residents . Seems there's a lot of variation on many things
