Does it make sense to buy full coverage?

The diagram below shows the difference between Chevy Traverse insurance costs when comparing full coverage to liability only. The premium estimates are based on no claims or driving violations, $100 deductibles, drivers are not married, and no discounts are applied.

Should you pay for full coverage or liability only?

There is no written rule of when to stop paying for full coverage, but there is a general school of thought. If the yearly cost for physical damage coverage is more than around 10% of replacement cost minus your deductible, then it might be time to buy liability only.

For example, let's pretend your Chevy Traverse replacement value is $5,000 and you have $1,000 full coverage deductibles. If your vehicle is totaled, the most you would get paid by your company is $4,000 after paying your deductible. If you are paying in excess of $400 a year for full coverage, then you might want to think about dropping full coverage.

There are some conditions where dropping physical damage coverage is not advised. If you still have a lienholder on your title, you must maintain physical damage coverage in order to prevent your loan from defaulting. Also, if you cannot afford to purchase a different vehicle in the event your current vehicle is totaled, you should not eliminate full coverage.

Best reasons to buy car insurance in Texas

Despite the fact that car insurance is not cheap in El Paso, paying for car insurance is required by state law in Texas and it also provides benefits you may not be aware of.

First, the majority of states have mandatory liability insurance requirements which means state laws require specific limits of liability protection if you drive a vehicle. In Texas these limits are 30/60/25 which means you must have $30,000 of bodily injury coverage per person, $60,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of property damage coverage.

Second, if your vehicle has a loan, most banks will require that you buy insurance to guarantee payment of the loan. If the policy lapses, the bank may buy a policy for your Chevy at a much higher premium rate and force you to pay a much higher amount than you were paying before.

Third, car insurance protects not only your Chevy Traverse but also your assets. It will also provide coverage for medical transport and hospital expenses for you, any passengers, and anyone injured in an accident. One of the most valuable coverages, liability insurance, will also pay to defend you if you are sued as the result of an accident. If your car is damaged in a storm or accident, comprehensive and collision coverage will pay all costs to repair after the deductible has been paid.

The benefits of buying car insurance more than offset the price you pay, specifically if you ever have a liability claim. On average, a vehicle owner in El Paso overpays more than $850 per year so compare rates each time the policy renews to save money.
