Insurance premiums paid to insure a 2003 can be significantly different based upon several criteria. Including but not limited to:
One important consideration that will help determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. Older cars and trucks have a lower value compared to new models so the costs to repair will push premiums down. But new models have more advanced features including dual-stage airbags, sideview assist mirrors, and active head restraints that may help give discounted rates.
Liability coverages
Liability insurance provides protection from damage or injury you incur to a person or their property by causing an accident. Liability coverage protects against claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so buy as large an amount as possible.
Collision coverage protection
Collision coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. It's also possible to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.
Comprehensive coverages
This pays to fix your vehicle from damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The highest amount your car insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.
Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers
Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle when the "other guys" either have no liability insurance or not enough. Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family.
Coverage for medical payments
Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for immediate expenses like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. PIP is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
