My first experience with them was as we both described. But I must say that I've called Hagerty twice since I posted this to get clarifications on my insurance coverage and the two different people I spoke to were great! Very helpful and nice and knowledgeable. But I was also talking to a different department this time so that may have something to do with it.

I thought I would add my 2 cents on Hagerty. I have had them for years on my '69 Chevelle. Thankfully I have never had to make a claim. When my son turned 16, I called Hagerty to inquire if they would even entertain putting him on my policy for his 1987 Corvette! Would they even put a teen on a classic policy? A new driver? A kid with a Corvette? Well, they said they would and it was no hassle.
Fast forward to this recently concluded school year, and it was his first day of his senior year of high school. He drove his Corvette to school. End of the day, leaving the school and he was side-swiped by a young woman, not from the school and she didn't stop. He followed her, got a picture of her vehicle and license plate, got into a brief, verbal altercation with her at a gas station, and she drove off without exchanging insurance information. So, we had to file a claim with Hagerty. They were great! We found a good shop to do the work and fix the car and Hagerty paid the claim. Luckily it was mostly paint and cosmetics and not any structural damage.

Just curious.  Did you file a police report for hit-and-run?  And, how did that turn out?

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

BD, he did call the cops...they said they were too busy at the moment to come out, but that an officer would come by the house later. They never did. He filed an online police report with a picture of her vehicle and her license plate. They did nothing.

And, so it is across The Nation.  Public servants have degraded lazily into treason.

Is that for daily driver insurance?  I can drive it to work in morning traffic?  I can leave it in a hotel parking lot overnight?  I don;t want collector insurance.  I want to drive my truck just like I do my 2018 impala.  In other words am I limited in any way normal newer cars aren't?  Can I tow a trailer on a 500 mile road trip?

Sadly it's all about the money.
