    I think it helps when you are a bit older. Insurance companies don't like the young ones.

    Be wary of two things... if neither apply then Youi and their colleagues are definitely great value, well done Mick.

    I can't use them because of the following issues in the Youi PDS... They won't cover

    18. when your car is being used on a permanent or temporary racetrack, raceway or course, or
    in a four wheel drive or adventure park, or if it is used for racing, trials, speed tests, pacing,
    contests, rallies or for endurance or skills tests;


    I was advised skills tests included 4WD Club Outings, Gymkhanas, Navigation Runs etc

    26. by the use or application of car parts or accessories which are not recommended or
    specified by the manufacturer;

    I was advised my Performance Chip, Suspension Mods, Tyres outside the Tyre Placard size were unacceptable

    Obviously for trucks close to or still factory and members who aren't right into teh Club scene or frequent the 4WD parks then these companies are very attractive pricewise but it was back to TCIS for me
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    I don't begrudge them knocking my Patrol back tho... as M M said, they take on the low risk customers and give them a great deal in return.

    You are correct with these points, but as it was explained to me, the mods I have and have planned will not affect the rating of the truck. As i'm not into extreme tuff truck type activities it was of no concern to them I did state that I do alot of off road tracks, with groups and clubs and they said that it was okay, as long as it was not the tough truck challenge type events.

    This policy suited me and might suit others, as you said it doesn't cover some mods or events, but for me it works.
    Cheers Mick

    Hiya Mick... yeah, mines no Tuff Truck just a nice Tourer... 2 inch lift 33's and a Chip. Word to the wise altho you prob know already, make sure they acknowledge any mods on the schedule or at least an Email record so they can't deny you told them.
