Insurance rates on a 2005 can fluctuate considerably subject to many criteria. Some of these factors include:

  • Traffic citations increase rates
  • Credit rating impacts rates
  • The size of your community
  • The number of annual miles
  • Male rates may be higher
  • Higher deductibles save money
  • Safety rating of your 2005
  • No claims lowers premiums
  • No coverage lapses saves money
  • Whether you own your home

One last important factor which can affect the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. A newer vehicle have a higher actual cash value so the payout to repair may result in higher rates. Conversely, newer vehicles may have options such as a rollover prevention system, a backup camera, a telematics system, and adaptive cruise control which may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Coverage for liability

2005 liability coverage can cover damage that occurs to people or other property that is your fault. Liability can pay for things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage protection

This covers damage to your resulting from a collision with another car or object. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your 2005 can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The most you'll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.

Insurance for medical payments

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for things like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
