Looking for better auto insurance rates for your Chevrolet C/K 2500 Series? Scraping up a payment for overpriced Chevrolet C/K 2500 Series insurance can drain your checking account and force you to prioritize other expenses. Comparing price quotes is a great way to make sure you’re not throwing money away. Many insurers vie for your insurance dollar, and it can be difficult to compare rates and get the definite lowest cost out there.
Lowering your 1995 Chevy C/K 2500 Series insurance coverage rates can be relatively painless. Drivers just need to spend a few minutes on the computer to compare rate quotes provided by online insurance companies. This is very easy and can be done in several different ways.
One of the best ways to find low rates is to use a rate comparison form (click to open form in new window). This easy form prevents you from having to do a different quote to each individual insurance coverage company. One form submission will return price quotes from many national carriers.
A slightly less efficient method to compare rate quotes requires a trip to the website for every company you want to comare and complete a new quote form. For example, we’ll assume you want to compare rates from Farmers, Progressive and Travelers. To get rate quotes you would need to visit each site to input your insurance information, which is why the first method is quicker.

The most time-consuming way to compare rates is to spend time driving to insurance agents’ offices. Shopping for insurance coverage online eliminates the need for an insurance agent unless you have a need for the trained guidance of a licensed agent. However, consumers can comparison shop your insurance online and still use a local agent and you’ll learn how to do that later.
It’s up to you which method you use, but compare the exact same coverage limits on every quote. If you enter different limits and deductibles on each one it will be impossible to determine the lowest rate for your Chevy C/K 2500 Series.
Companies offering auto insurance don’t necessarily list every discount very clearly, so we researched some of the best known and also the lesser-known ways to save on insurance coverage. If you’re not getting every credit available, you are throwing money away.
It’s important to note that most discount credits are not given to the overall cost of the policy. Most only cut specific coverage prices like liability and collision coverage. So when it seems like all those discounts means the company will pay you, insurance coverage companies aren’t that generous.

When buying adequate coverage for your personal vehicles, there isn’t really a one size fits all plan. Every situation is different so this has to be addressed. For example, these questions might help in determining whether your personal situation could use an agent’s help.
If it’s difficult to answer those questions but you know they apply to you then you might want to talk to an agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, fill out this quick form or click here for a list of insurance coverage companies in your area. It only takes a few minutes and you can get the answers you need.
Learning about specific coverages of a auto insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. Auto insurance terms can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Shown next are the usual coverages offered by auto insurance companies.
Collision – Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your C/K 2500 Series resulting from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision coverage pays for claims like colliding with a tree, scraping a guard rail, sustaining damage from a pot hole, damaging your car on a curb and crashing into a building. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers – Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Chevy C/K 2500 Series.
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 is a good idea.
Medical expense insurance – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for immediate expenses for ambulance fees, hospital visits, EMT expenses, prosthetic devices and X-ray expenses. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Liability insurance – This coverage provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people. This coverage protects you against claims from other people, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.
Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show values of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery.
Liability coverage pays for things such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, court costs, bail bonds and medical expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is a personal decision, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.
Comprehensive (Other than Collision) – This coverage will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as a broken windshield, fire damage, hail damage and rock chips in glass. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
