I tested three ways to shop for car insurance - a lead generator, a licensed comparison site, and calling five local agents - using a burner phone to track every call, text, and email. Real Test, real numbers, no filter. I did the dirty work, so you don't have to. Which method got the best rate? The Results might surprise you. Methods tested: A leading lead generator that calls itself a comparison site. A licensed comparison site. 5 local independent and captive agents.
