Im not sure, its on my dads plan thingy.  He gets discounts for me, and it only coasts me like 100/month I think.

It may be even less than that but, if i get into an accident, the Tracker dont get fixed :)  It still has the same appearance even after I got rear-ended a few times in it.

Hey there,

If you are over 18  or are legal age to deliver pizza in your area......

I put myself through college by delivering pizza in a suzuki Samurai. It was the perfect little truck for the job, reliable, good gas mileage, easy to park, good in snow, good in summer with the roof off.  Just about the perfect car for pizza driving. If i knew then what i know know about sammys i would have been even more succesful at it.   I made 13-15 bucks an hour for 5 years at a little greasy spoon pizza joint.  If your smart, careful, and know a thing or two about taking care of your zuk, you should be able to make good money and get an education at the same time. 

No help with insurance though, never had insurance cheaper than 2500 a year until i was in my 20's.

Now i pay 400 a year for full coverage as a collectors car on my samurai........lol

A good pizza delivery guy can pull some real dollars...

I am 44 and have a TWO friends my age that STILL deliver pizza... I couldn't believe it, I thought they were just stoners that lived with mom still... BUT, I looked them up the other day, both are married, and the wives work... but these two guys have been delivering pizza for like 25 years!!!!    The one guy drives a new Vette but delivers Za in a Festiva... LOL...  He told me he has made 700+ in a week before...    I about passed out...    It takes a while to move to the top of the list on a busy pizza stores delivery list sometimes... the guys that have been there know all the tricks, and how to route, and the best times to work, and the best neighborhoods for tips... lol...  stuff like that..

I was truly amazed.. I never considered delivering pizza.. but all in all, it would be a great gig for a high school or college student...

I live in BRITISH COLUMBIA CANADA and I am 21 years of age. I have a bad driving record  [speeding tickets, impaired charges ETC] and have had 1 accident since I got my class 7 license when I was exactly 16 years old and because of the single vehicle accident I have a surcharge of 30%. For me to insure a 1991 Sidekick JX HT 1.6L 4X4 it was $177 CDN per month with full coverage [ Collision, theft, fire ETC ]. For me to insure a 1991 Jeep Cherokee XJ 2-DOOR Auto 4.OL it was $255 CDN per month with the same coverage [ I have owned both ]. The ICBC Insurance company goes by gross vehicle weight to expense their rates and thats where the Sidekick really kicks it because its light. So I love Suzuki SUV'S because theY are light and cheaper to insure than almost anyother 4x4 [ here in B.C. anyway]. Everyone knows how good they are too!!   [ I am currently surving a driving prohibition and are prohibited from driving ]

Well I bought a new truck figuring it would be a good idea. But nope, the insurance company mis quoted my insurance. So instead of being 120 a month its 315! So needless to say Im ditching the truck and getting my zuk back on the road. Anyone interested in a 2006 ford f-150 with 6000 miles?  :P  Insurance on my kick is only 80 bucks a month.

yeah you can make good money delivering pizza. i did it when i was much younger, and bought a 73 vette. i remember entering the work force seeing much older people driving beaters to work, and i show up in a vette  8) i earned delivering pizza  ;D

insurance for me is $1200 a year full coverage, but i've got a 40+ % discount, oh and i'm 41 ::)

Hello,

They kill the young guys...Mine is $95 a month for minimum coverage on the Tracker!!!....I'm 27,Married(not for long...)But I've got more speeding tickets than socks...LOL I gave up counting after about 25...That was a few years ago.I got one 104 in 65 :'(...Cop was kinda cool(Didn't go to Jail!!)
He wrote me for dead sticker,tinted windows,tinted lic.cover,no proof of ins.,and of course speeding...He said you drive faster than me...I said well now that's not true,You had to turn around and catch me...Same cop as above chased me on the street bike I had (2000 Ninja 600R)Speeds in excess of 150 but they didn't catch me.Heck they got me a few weeks ago in the truck 81 in 65 by plane on the PA turnpike. To make a long story short....DON'T GET SPEEDING TICKETS!!!!   They chased me once in high school in the 95 tracker I had....The city cop had a Corsica...He got smoked..LOL   But now I pay monthly for all that "FUN".

Later Tom K.

I am 19 years old, and my insurance is about $50 a month, but that is because I am on my moms insurance plan, and I have a perfect driving record (except for a fix it ticket, of course). I work at a Honda Dealership making $8.50 an hour, which really isnt that bad considering that I sit around most of the time. The Honda Dealership I work for has hired so many car detailers that most of the time, there are 5 people doing a one or two person job, so I just kick back and watch them, or go and talk to the honda technicians. I know of all the hondas not to buy, because I see and hear about which ones are junk. The ones that have the most problems are the CRVs, Pilots, and Odysseys. most of the problems are with the automatic transmissions, as I never see any 5 speed ones in there with problems. I have decided the CRV as the most boring vehicle that I have driven there. It has none of the fun factors of a kick.
Runnin' it stock with 225/75R15s and an unmodified 8valve TBI motor (I need a doug thoroley header and a cam) (more power) (1.6 liters of madness) (vroom + sewing machine sounds)
