Insurance rates and discounts

The price of auto insurance can be rather high, but companies offer discounts that can help lower your rates. A few discounts will be applied at quote time, but less common discounts must be requested specifically before being credited.

• ABS Brakes – Anti-lock brake equipped vehicles can avoid accidents and therefore earn up to a 10% discount.
• Discount for Swiching Early – Some companies give discounts for switching policies before your current expiration date. You may see this discount when you get Aurora car insurance quotes online.
• Federal Employees – Employees or retirees of the government could provide a small rate reduction with a few insurance companies.
• No Accidents – Drivers with accident-free driving histories have much lower rates in comparison to insureds who have frequent claims or accidents.
• New Car Discount – Buying insurance coverage on a new vehicle can get you a discount because newer models are generally safer.
• Discounts for Cautious Drivers – Drivers who don’t get into accidents may save up to 50% more compared to rates paid by drivers with frequent claims.
• Accident Forgiveness Coverage – Not necessarily a discount, but some insurance companies will allow you to have one accident without getting socked with a rate hike as long as you don’t have any claims prior to being involved in the accident.

As a footnote on discounts, many deductions do not apply to the overall cost of the policy. A few only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as liability and collision coverage. So despite the fact that it appears you could get a free insurance policy, nobody gets a free ride. Any amount of discount will help lower your insurance premiums.

Analysis of Ford F-350 rates

The information displayed below showcases estimates of coverage costs for Ford F-350 models. Learning how policy premiums are figured is important to be able to make decisions when shopping around.

Does it make sense to buy full coverage?

The chart below shows the difference between Ford F-350 car insurance costs when comparing full coverage to liability only. The data assumes no accidents, no driving violations, $1,000 deductibles, marital status is single, and no discounts are applied to the premium.

Should you pay for full coverage or liability only?

There is no specific rule to exclude full coverage on your policy, but there is a general convention. If the annual cost of having full coverage is more than around 10% of any settlement you would receive from your insurance company, then it may be the right time to buy liability only.

For example, let’s say your Ford F-350 settlement value is $4,000 and you have $1,000 deductibles. If your vehicle is destroyed, the most your company would pay you is $3,000 after paying the physical damage deductible. If you are paying in excess of $300 a year for your policy with full coverage, then you may need to consider dropping full coverage.

There are some scenarios where buying only liability insurance is not recommended. If you still owe money on your vehicle, you are required to maintain full coverage to protect the lienholder’s interest in the vehicle. Also, if your savings is not enough to buy a different vehicle if your current one is damaged, you should not drop full coverage.

Components of Your Ford F-350 Insurance Prices

Consumers need to have an understanding of some of the factors that are used to determine car insurance rates. When you understand what determines premiums, this enables informed choices that could help you find lower rates. Lots of factors are considered when you get a price on insurance. A few of the factors are predictable like an MVR report, although some other factors are not quite as obvious such as whether you are married or your financial responsibility.

• Premiums are lower the older you get – Teenage drivers in Colorado are statistically proven to be easily distracted when driving and because of this, their car insurance rates are much higher. Older, more experienced drivers are more cautious drivers, tend to file fewer claims, and usually have better credit.

  The following chart is based on a single driver, full coverage with $500 deductibles, and no discounts or violations.

• Comp and collision deductibles are a factor – Physical damage protection, commonly called comprehensive (or other-than-collision) and collision coverage, insures against damage to your Ford. Some coverage claims are a broken windshield, hail damage, and windstorm damage. Your deductibles are how much you are required to spend out-of-pocket if a covered claim is submitted. The larger the amount you pay before a claim is paid (deductible), the better rate you will receive.
• Why do you need liability protection? – A critical coverage on your policy, liability insurance will protect you when you are found to be at fault for causing personal injury or damage in an accident. Liability provides for a legal defense starting from day one. Liability insurance is pretty cheap compared to physical damage coverage, so do not cut corners here.

• More performance means higher costs – The make and model of the car or truck you are buying insurance for makes a big difference in your rates. Smaller low performance passenger cars generally receive the lowest base rates, but many other things help determine your insurance rates.

  The chart below uses these variables: married male driver age 40, full coverage with $250 deductibles, and no discounts or violations. It illustrates Ford F-350 policy rates compared to other models that have different risk factors.

• Ford F-350 insurance claim data – Insurers take into consideration historical loss data for every vehicle to determine a rate that will be profitable for them. Vehicles that statistically have higher loss trends will have higher rates for specific coverages. The table shown below demonstrates the historical loss data for Ford F-350 vehicles.

  For each policy coverage, the loss probability for all vehicles, without regard to make or model, is equal to 100. Values that are below 100 suggest losses that are better than average, while percentage numbers above 100 indicate more frequent losses or a tendency for losses to be larger than average.
