When I got this insurance, the car was barely drivable and it was winter, so 
I did not drive much and did not know how many miles I might put on it. 
When I got crunched in the parking lot, I reported "getting the mail."  That 
was apparently enough for them to ask again about usage.  I reported what 
seemed to me to be small usage "around town."  They don't want us driving 
around town, buy only to shows, meets, etc.  I think there is a cutoff 
somewhere around 2500 miles.  I am currently buying one tank of gas a week, 
which is about 130-150 miles, quite a bit more than 2500 miles.

That's OK with me.  The insurance is cheap enough on a $6000 car anyway. 
But I do need collision because of the visibility problem.
