hi everyone, new owner of a 2013 prius and shopping for car insurance quotes anyone from san diego, ca and if so how much do you pay for your car insurance. thanks
You might want to request other info like age, sex, driving history, marital status, etc. as that would greatly impact the premium.
I posted up similar thread a week ago and I have been successful on better rate hunting. ofcoursr, you will be expecting less coverage for sure. I just turned tp 32 and bought Prius two. 21 century quoted me at $89 a mo. oh yes, I live in SoCal. SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 ? 2
From MY350Z.COM Forums - View Single Post - The Top 100 Common Questions The above is true. Even your credit rating can affect your insurance costs. It's even mentioned at How Does Credit History Affect My Auto Insurance Quote?.
If you or anyone else in California would like a free quote just let me know. I work for a broker that has access to more than 100 different companies. I can send the rates straight to your email. Price will vary widely depending where you live, what/how you drive, annual miles etc.
Depends on the coverage, age, your driving history and a lot of other factors. I pay $78/month for mine.
i will NEVER buy anything ghat the finance officer tries to sell to you. GAP insurance is pretty much you give away your money for nothing.. unless you drive like hollywood stuntmen or you live right in between Palestine and Israel. SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 ? 2
Hey guys, paying for insurance monthly is really expensive versus paying once every 6 months or annually, check it out.
I pay right around $32 a month, I do pay in 6 month intervals to save the monthly charge. 40 years old, multiple vehicle discount, multiple policy discount, paid in full discount, safety instructor discount. 100k/300k coverages, with towing, and rental, $500 deductible. Good credit, no accidents or tickets, Idaho. Just as another comparison.
Insurance varies soooo much. Your best bet is to: Combine with your renters/home owners Shop around Ask for referrals from friends or family (sometimes they get a referral bonus). I'm a huge advocate of word of mouth advertising. I use Erie Insurance (in PA) They have competitive rates and have been wonderful with claims from storm damage to my house to a recent car accident. Don't skimp or get the bare minimum coverage, it's worth getting things like replacement value, full tort, and uninsured motorist protection
Some states, such as the one I live in, use credit scores to help determine insurance rates. So keep your credit scores as high as you can and check them once a year or so to be sure they are correct. To reemphasize what has been mentioned above, other factors include: what city/county you live in, how likely your car is to be stolen, how much your car would cost to fix, your driving record (i.e. tickets and accidents), the driving records of other licensed drivers in your household, where you park your car, garage or street. A couple of good companies are USAA if you qualify, Amica, and the old standby State Farm which is pretty good if you have been with them for a while. Also mentioned above, if you have all your insurance with one company you can get a pretty good discount. Shop around.
It make no difference paying by the month, semi-annual or annual. The premium is the same. Check it out.
I pay over 1k a year, AAA, but I also drive over 90 miles a day in los angeles. I'm 59 and have a perfect record. Its is the 35k a year mileage that kills me.
Actually that is not true, some companies do offer a discount if paying in full, from previous experience, Farmers, MetLife, Progressive and All-State all offer a discount if paying in full 6 month or yearly payments. They almost always add a fee if they do monthly payments because it's more work for them and they are rewarding you for being a customer longer.. don't just say it makes no difference in a blanket statement if you don't know if it's true or not. Maybe your company doesn't offer that and that's fine, but mine does. I actually save I think it's like $60 every 6 months by paying my auto insurance in full, that's 2 months premium on my Prius, I save $50 a year on my motorcycle policy paying 12 months at a time, and since I only pay $240 that's a good chunk.
Most insurance won't let you pay the full year premium so that they can adjust your premium every 6 month in case you get more than 2 tickets. State Farm do not take monthly payment until recently they have quarterly payment. If they give you discount on semi-annual or annual payment, actually they hike the payment for monthly payment and pretend to be discounted. Auto insurance always base on 6 months period.
