Shopping online for car insurance may seem to be difficult if you are a beginner to online quoting. But relax because we’re going to show you how.

Where Can I Get Cheap Insurance Coverage?

When shopping for insurance coverage there are multiple ways to compare quotes from local insurance coverage companies. The simplest method to find competitive 1995 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 insurance rates involves getting comparison quotes online. This is very easy and can be done in a couple of different ways.

One of the simplest ways to get the best comparison quotes is a comparison rater form like this one (opens in new window). This type of form saves time by eliminating a different quote for every insurance coverage company. A single, simple form will get you price quotes from insurance coverage companies with the best prices. This is perfect if you don’t have a lot of time.

Another way to obtain and compare quotes online consists of visiting each company’s website and fill out their own quote form. For sake of this example, let’s say you want to compare rates from Liberty Mutual, Esurance and Farmers. To get each rate you have to visit each site to enter your coverage information, and that’s why the first method is more popular. To view a list of companies in your area, click here.

Which method you use is up to you, but make sure you use exactly the same deductibles and coverage limits on every quote. If your comparisons have differing limits you will not be able to decipher which rate is best. Slightly different insurance coverages can mean a large discrepancy in price. And when comparing insurance coverage rates, know that comparing more company’s prices provides better odds of finding the best rates.

How to know if you need help

When choosing coverage, there isn’t really a cookie cutter policy. Everyone’s situation is unique.

For instance, these questions can help discover whether your personal situation might need professional guidance.

  • Does my insurance cover my expensive audio equipment?
  • Am I covered when renting a car or should I buy coverage from the car rental agency?
  • Do I get a pro-rated refund if I cancel my policy early?
  • Why am I be forced to buy a membership to get insurance from some companies?
  • Will I be non-renewed for getting a DUI or other conviction?
  • Is upholstery damage covered by car insurance?
  • Is my custom paint covered by insurance?
  • If my 1995 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 is totaled, can I afford another vehicle?
  • Does my insurance cover damage caused when ticketed for reckless driving?
  • Does coverage extend to Mexico or Canada?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, simply complete this short form.

Educate yourself about insurance coverages

Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy can be of help when determining the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement.

Collision coverage protection

This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Ram Pickup 1500 resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things like damaging your car on a curb, colliding with another moving vehicle and colliding with a tree. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Liability auto insurance

This coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people that is your fault. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. As an example, you may have values of 100/300/100 which means a limit of $100,000 per injured person, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Another option is a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage pays for claims like medical expenses, bail bonds, court costs, medical services and pain and suffering. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for bills for hospital visits, surgery, rehabilitation expenses, ambulance fees and doctor visits. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things like hail damage, vandalism and hitting a bird. The maximum payout your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
