Rates are determined by these things

Insurance rates paid to insure a 2005 can be significantly different depending on several factors. Including but not limited to:

  • A clean driving record keeps rates low
  • Better credit means lower rates
  • Male drivers pay higher rates
  • The deductible you choose
  • Crash test rating for your 2005
  • No claims lowers premiums
  • Having current coverage saves
  • Home ownership saves money

One last important factor that can impact the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are new have a higher value so the cost to replace them may end up costing you more. On the flip side, new models may have options like a collision avoidance system, a telematics system, dual-stage airbags, and pedestrian detection that may help help offset higher rates.

Liability coverage - This coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to a person or their property. Liability coverage protects against claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Collision - This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive coverage - This covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The highest amount your auto insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage - Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.

Medical payments coverage and PIP - Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and may carry a deductible.
