<VV> Hagerty insurance,

[Joe Robbins]

I don't care what they say to who, they paid off great when I had claims ,
I'm sticking with them, maybe some thicker skin is in order for some people?

I think in light of this, any Corvair person who has Hagerty as their
insurance company ought to cancel their policy, citing that "opinion" as
the reason. No customer likes (or ought to put up with) being insulted.
It's our right to take our money where we are treated better.
