Insurance rates for a 2006 will vary greatly depending on several factors. Some of these factors include:

  • Higher performance 2006 vehicles cost more
  • Your accident history
  • Multiple policies can save money
  • Use of your vehicle
  • Extra coverages like towing and rental
  • Your profession
  • The level of coverage
  • Whether you own your home

One last important factor that helps determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Older models cost less so repair costs tend to be lower which may result in lower rates. Conversely, newer vehicles may have options such as forward-collision avoidance, sideview assist mirrors, and all-wheel drive so those may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability coverage

This coverage can cover damage that occurs to other people or property in an accident. Liability insurance covers things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as much as you can afford.

Collision protection

Collision insurance covers damage to your caused by collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. 2006 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum amount you'll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for short-term medical expenses for things like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
