发帖数: 492 | 1 现在有几个选择:
1, Farmers 价格比较便宜，但是bodily injury/property damage只有50k/100k/100k
2, AAA 价格和Farmers差不多，然后bodily injury/property damage是Farmers的两倍
AAA就是还要加入一个membership，我感觉Plus和Premium都可以。
3, StateFarm，价格最贵，以前我是他们的客户，但是因为出了两次小事故，他们把保
险的价格升上去了，之前和他们沟通感觉态度都不错，问题最后都解决了。
就是不知道Farmers和AAA的服务态度和解决问题能力 怎么样？
另外有个问题是：保险公司的agent是不是比较重要？之前联系了一个AAA的agent，价
格比较好，但是态度比较不好，email复制粘贴，电话中不太耐烦，所以就不敢跟ta做
生意，所以又换了一个agent重新quote。 |

发帖数: 2337 | 2 我直行，右边apartment转出来一辆车直接左拐撞上我的右前轮，把车轮子撞下来了，
另外把右边两个车门撞坏。保险公司跟我说报废。我车是2001年的Honda Accord LX
（我的是V6）跑了10万300迈，刚换了刹车系统，四个轮胎，换了新电池。farmars说我
的车不值得修了，他们补偿我5482刀（含税），我觉得，我的车16年才跑了10万买，按
这种用法再跑20年应该没问题，我第一次遇到车祸报废，人家保险公司直接就打电话告
诉我5482刀，我总不能跟人家farmers说我这个破车你竟然给我这么多钱吧。再说了，
保险公司不是傻子，肯定是我的车值这个钱人家才给我的吧。为什么有人说我挖坑呢？
我不懂车，第一次经历这种事情，既然大家都说我不亏，我就不再和保险公司理论了。
今天把保险公司为我租的车还了，也把车的title和钥匙寄走了。谢谢大家。

发帖数: 2934 | 3 蔬菜品种没有超市丰富，主要是叶子菜的总类不如超市，而且没有木耳没有豆芽。但是
我们这里的farmer's market中国店的蔬菜美国点的蔬菜都有，所以种类也不错。价格
是便宜到不能再便宜。比美国超市的蔬菜都新鲜，买回来随便怎么做都好吃的不得了。
而且以前我找不到的ugly tomato，farmers market也有很多新鲜的，而且是organic得，
价格和普通西红柿一样，而且红色黄色的bell pepper和绿色的是一个价格，不会像超
市一样，因为特别就卖得贵。
总之就是让人特别开心。最喜欢逛farmers market乐。不过你要当心几点，一是买回来
的蔬菜要好好洗，普通的农民小规模的生产可能会比超市干净也有可能比超市脏，二是
也有不新鲜的蔬菜或者长得过老的蔬菜要稍微小心，三是很多农民就挑产量高的东西种，
那些东西也会卖得比较便宜，你自己要控制住不要因为便宜或者老看到就多买。有些东
西吃多了不好，比如秋天的茄子，茄碱很多的，我看farmers market上到处都是茄子啊，
青椒阿，秋葵阿，而那些标准的健康的常吃的菜会比较少，所以要早点去。比如现在南
