Auto Insurance question

I was talking to a coworker this morning who is a single guy with 2 vehicles in his name. He told me that he has 1 oh his vehicles insured with Geico and the other with State Farm. He says that if he keeps both vehicles with the same company and policy, it cost him more.
He says by splitting the vehicles with different companies, it's saves him $60 month. I didn't know that was even possible. Is that legal and has anyone else ever done this?

Everything is state specific.
But if the insurance companies know about the other car, I'm sure everything is fine.
Usually, "bundling" a multicar discount saves money. The only thing I can imagine is that the insurance companies are thinking that he is "hiding" a second driver on a 2 car policy and surcharging for that.

Your co-worker is very, very wrong.

Most insurance companies would never write a policy knowing there is another vehicle in the household owned by their Named Insured not listed on the policy.
My initial thought is that your coworker is full of shite or not very smart.

Never heard of such. Have always bundled autos with home

Sounds illogical. Wouldn’t both insurance companies automatically assume the car they’re insuring is the primary auto and insure as such based on the risk. Where as by bundling it, it’s known one is a secondary auto and not in the road as much; there by, minimizing some of the risk

Is that legal
I am certainly no legal expert when it comes to auto insurance, but I feel pretty confident is stating there isn't a state in the union that has a law prohibiting a person from insuring multiple vehicles through different insurance companies. As to whether it is truly a cost saving measure, I would have the same doubts expressed by others here.
