This is a quote from the article: "

In Minnesota, where the highway speed limit is 70 mph, drivers who go over
75 less than 0.1% of the time get an extra 5% discount."

From what I've seen on the list about diesel Vanagons --- you're a shoo-in
for the discount ---- though the tracking device only plugs in to vehicles
made in '96 and up.............

Cheers,

        Subject:        Wonder if this device will plug into a diesel Vanagon?

Progressive will announce its TripSense trial in Minnesota on Aug. 24.
Customers who sign up will get a device the size of a Tic Tac box to plug
into their cars. The device will track speed and how many miles are driven
at what times of day. Every few months, customers would unplug the device
from the car, plug it into a computer, upload the data and send it to
Progressive. Depending on results, discounts will range from 5% to 25%.
