"Top 5 Tips"
 | | Cheryl Myers |
Auto Insurance Myths
Last month, we talked about the pitfalls of selecting an insurance company by price alone. This month, I would like to cover some auto insurance myths, beginning with the myth that older cars always cost less to insure. While the age of your vehicle may influence your rate in certain cases, insurers look at many aspects of your car. Rates are based on not just the age of the car, but how popular they are with thieves, the difficulty to get parts, the cost of the parts, etc.
Another myth is that red cars cost more to insure. You can paint your car any pigment on the rainbow, but the color of your car makes no difference to insurers. The majority of insurers care only about the make and model of your vehicle.
Let me know if you have any insurance questions you would like answered.
