Premiums are calculated by...

Insurance rates on a 2008 can fluctuate considerably depending on several factors. Including but not limited to:

  • A clean driving record keeps rates low
  • Credit rating impacts rates
  • The size of your community
  • The number of annual miles
  • Men typically pay more than women
  • The deductible you choose
  • Crash test rating for your 2008
  • Your profession
  • Insurance coverage level
  • Home ownership saves money

One last important factor which can affect the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are a few years old have a lower value so the cost to replace them may result in lower rates. Although more recent vehicles may have options included like tire pressure monitors, autonomous braking, a collision avoidance system, and anti-lock brakes which may help offset higher rates.

Auto liability

This coverage will cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property that is your fault. Liability can pay for claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage protection

This will pay to fix damage to your resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in. Collision coverage for your 2008 can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper .

Comprehensive auto coverage

This coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The most your car insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value it's not worth carrying full coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection from other motorists when they are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage pay for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states and may carry a deductible.
