$345 a month??? How many tickets/accidents do you have?

MAN the most I ever paid for car insurance for myself was $175 a month, and
that was with 2 tickets... OUCH!!

My wife's RT's insurance costs were $8.00 more, every 6 months than the 2
year
old Toyota Corolla she use to drive. Even with higher coverage because of
the
lease (which you have-- 100/300k liability, etc.)

As far as the sport vs. RT... is the sport a V8?? If so, you probably did
better with
the sport, as it will be cheaper for you to 'Feed' each month than the
RT.... With 2
RT's, my gas bill is around $350-400 a month... The V8 sport will get better
mileage
(but don't expect miracles), especially after the engine/trans are broken
in.
