I'm curious to know what replacement value is being calculated at for those of you with the RV coverage.
I recently dropped CA AAA when I realized they'd only cover me for Blue Book value in case it was totaled... A fraction of its true worth.
I now have a Farmers policy with replacement value based on an independent analysis.
