Complexity of Ford Bronco insurance rates

Consumers need to have an understanding of the factors that come into play when calculating the price you pay for insurance. Understanding what controls the rates you pay empowers consumers to make smart changes that will entitle you to much lower annual insurance costs.

  • Liability coverage protects you – Your policy’s liability coverage provides coverage if ever you are found liable for personal injury or accident damage. It provides you with a defense in court which can be incredibly expensive. This coverage is very inexpensive as compared to coverage for physical damage, so do not cut corners here.
  • More than one policy can earn a discount – The majority of insurance companies will give a discount to customers who have multiple policies with them, otherwise known as a multi-policy discount. Even with this discount, it’s in your best interest to shop around to make sure you are getting the best deal.
  • Pleasure use saves money – The more miles you rack up on your Ford each year the higher your rates will be. Most insurance companies apply a rate based on how the vehicle is used. Cars left parked in the garage qualify for better rates compared to those used for work or business. Having the wrong rating on your Bronco can result in significantly higher rates. Make sure your insurance policy is showing how each vehicle is driven.
  • Safe vehicles cost less to insure – Cars with high safety ratings are cheaper to insure. Safe vehicles protect occupants better and any reduction in injury severity translates into savings for insurance companies and more competitive rates for policyholders.

  • Extra coverages can waste money – There are many extra coverages that you can buy when buying insurance.

Auto Insurance Quote Comparison

Finding lower auto insurance rates is a fairly straight forward process. The only thing you need to do is take a couple of minutes comparing price quotes from different insurance companies. This can be accomplished in a couple of different ways.

  1. One of the best ways to get quotes for comparison is a comparison rater form click here to open form in new window. This method keeps you from doing separate forms to each individual auto insurance company. A single form gets you coverage quotes from all major companies. Recommended for those who want to invest the least amount of time.
  2. A harder way to shop for auto insurance online requires a visit to the website for each individual company to complete a price quote. For sake of this example, we’ll pretend you want to compare rates from Farmers, Geico and Travelers. You would have to visit each site and enter your policy data, and that’s why the first method is more popular. For a handy list of car insurance company links in your area, click here.

It’s up to you which method you use, but double check that you are using identical coverages for each price quote. If you use different limits and deductibles on each one it’s impossible to make a fair comparison for your Ford Bronco.

Auto insurance ads bend the truth

Consumers get pounded daily by advertisements that promise big savings from companies such as Progressive, Geico, Allstate and State Farm. They all seem to have a common claim that you’ll save big if you switch your policy.

How do they all make almost identical claims?

All companies have a preferred profile for the right customer they prefer to insure. For instance, a profitable customer might be between 30 and 50, has no driving citations, and drives newer vehicles. Any driver who matches those parameters gets the lowest rates and most likely will pay quite a bit less when switching companies.

Potential customers who don’t measure up to the “perfect” profile will be quoted a more expensive rate and this can result in the driver buying from a lower-cost company. The ad wording is “drivers who switch” not “everybody who quotes” save that much money. This is how companies can make the claims of big savings.

This emphasizes why drivers should get as many comparisons as possible. It’s not possible to predict which auto insurance company will provide you with the cheapest Ford Bronco insurance rates.

Lower rates by qualifying for discounts

The price of auto insurance can be rather high, buy you may qualify for discounts to help offset the cost. Most are applied at the time of quoting, but lesser-known reductions have to be asked about in order for you to get them. If you’re not getting every credit you qualify for, you are throwing money away.

  • Drive Safe and Save – Drivers who don’t get into accidents may receive a discount up to 45% less on Bronco insurance than less cautious drivers.
  • Save with a New Car – Adding a new car to your policy can cost up to 25% less compared to insuring an older model.
  • Student in College – Any of your kids living away from home attending college without a vehicle on campus may be able to be covered for less.
  • Seat Belts Save more than Lives – Buckling up and requiring all passengers to wear their seat belts can save 10% or more off your medical payments premium.
  • Good Students Pay Less – Performing well in school can save 20 to 25%. The discount lasts up until you turn 25.

Consumers should know that most of the big mark downs will not be given to the overall cost of the policy. Some only reduce specific coverage prices like collision or personal injury protection. Just because you may think all the discounts add up to a free policy, it just doesn’t work that way. But any discount will help reduce your premiums.

Specific coverages for a 1992 Ford Bronco

Learning about specific coverages of your auto insurance policy aids in choosing appropriate coverage for your vehicles. Auto insurance terms can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Comprehensive auto coverage

Comprehensive insurance pays for 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 claims like damage from flooding, a broken windshield, a tree branch falling on your vehicle and hitting a bird. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your 1992 Ford Bronco.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Collision coverage

This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Bronco resulting from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision insurance covers claims such as crashing into a building, sustaining damage from a pot hole and colliding with another moving vehicle. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. You can also bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for bills such as ambulance fees, dental work and funeral costs. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers all vehicle occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states and may carry a deductible

Liability car insurance

This protects you from damage or injury you incur to people or other property by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see liability limits of 25/50/25 which means $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, $50,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Another option is one limit called combined single limit (CSL) that pays claims from the same limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability can pay for claims like emergency aid, medical expenses and medical services. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

A penny saved is a penny earned

You just learned a lot of techniques to save on 1992 Ford Bronco insurance. The key thing to remember is the more you quote, the better your comparison will be. You may be surprised to find that the best prices are with the smaller companies.

When you buy insurance online, don’t be tempted to skimp on critical coverages to save a buck or two. There have been many cases where someone dropped collision coverage only to find out that the small savings ended up costing them much more. Your strategy should be to purchase a proper amount of coverage for the lowest price while not skimping on critical coverages.

Lower-priced insurance is possible from both online companies and also from your neighborhood agents, and you should be comparing both so you have a total pricing picture. Some insurance coverage companies may not provide the ability to get a quote online and most of the time these smaller companies sell through independent agents.
