USAA is stepping up like a few other companies I've read about.
"Every member with an auto insurance policy in effect as of March 31, 2020, will receive a 20% credit on two months of premiums in the coming weeks."
I don't know about you other thinkers out there, but I'm probably driving 80% less right now rather than 20%.
I'm still driving in to work every day.... so for the most part I am driving a little less, but not much. I only go to the gas station (for gas only) and work. Otherwise, I'm at home.
Weird thing is, I've also been driving a little slower.... just not in a hurry, I suppose. And the little car got just under 38 mpg this last tank. Toyota claims it'll do 40, but I've yet to see that.

Geico is doing that as well but its 15% off your policy (for the year) as it comes up for renewal (between April and October). Also applies to new policies.
Well, the University of Utah's specialists believe today could be the "peak" day for COVID in Utah. I certainly hope so, and also hope that we lose no more lives to it. I think our state count held at 13 deaths yesterday - still too many.
3 weeks ago Michigan had a handful of cases. Now were 3rd most behind New York and New Jersey. It just exploded with no real explanation for it. The governor was on it early and people were complaining about that. Not so much anymore.
Bought another piece to the 351 puzzle.... To clear the 351 oil pan, you either have to remove, or lower the sway bar. These are SN95 mounts which will drop it about 2" as I recall. The guy I spoke to at Ford Racing tole me that typically 3/4" is enough, but he recommended using the SN95 pieces over fabricating spacers anyway. Now I need to either modify my end links, or get a shorter set.
I drove the highboy around the neighborhood today! Brakes are still soft, I imagine I need to bleed them some more. Have a coolant leak now... thats annoying lol. BUT the power steering works like a champ and the front axle stayed under there lol
I managed yesterday to put in my new radio surround. The first thing I noticed is it didn't fit. I would have to cut the top some to clear the radio. I decided that wasn't the best way. I took the radio loose and tilted it a bit on the front. It slid right in. Now the radio was not locked in though. I pulled the surround again and this time I was able to slot the two mounts and able to drop the front 1/16 of an inch to make it clear. Perfect now. Even the microphone is fully exposed now, so that will help a lot.
While I was in there, I had all the new LED's so I ended up putting in the blues. The RGB's were too long, as least for the heater, so I just used all blue, 5 LED bulbs. Lit up very nice and clear at night. I'll take some pictures tonight. I still have to reset the new front light housings to the right angles, but they are close right now. Best to have them right. I also swapped the left front vent, which I broke with a phone holder.
I finally got around to doing a bunch of needed maintenance on the Toyota today. Changed the oil, air filter, rotated the tires.... changed the remote wire for my amp to come off the stereo (when I had a factory stereo, it had no remote wire), and then FINALLY did "The Big Three" on it. I tried to make it look as factory as possible. We'll see if that fixes my issue on Monday morning.
