The SECRET to saving money on your new car and your insurance

Ummmmm - the smell of a new car!  The clean seats, the heated steering wheel, the spacious back seat!  We all love to get a new car!  We are so happy when we drive it off of the lot -  But then comes the "hidden costs" - insurance, parts, maintenance, gas, more.

Here are the TOP WAYS TO SAVE WHEN YOU BUY A CAR:

+ Compare the cost of insurance for the vehicles you are considering to buy

+ Consider a car that is not frequently stolen, check with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

+ Choose a type that has less documented claims, like these:

·  Buick Rendezvous

·  Pontiac Solstice

·  Buick Terraza

·  Honda Odyssey

·  Mazda MX-5 Miata

·  Subaru Outback

·  Ford Five Hundred

·  Volvo V70

·  Chrysler Town & Country

·  Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

 

+ Check out a hybrid - many insurance carriers provide discounts for hybrids

+ Look at cars with lower repair costs, check with Consumer Reports

+ Buy a vehicle with automatic daytime running lights that make you easier to see on the road

Your Trusted Choice Insurance Advisor can help you SAVE MONEY ON INSURANCE! 

TOP WAYS TO SAVE WHEN YOU BUY AUTO INSURANCE:

+ Check with your local Trusted Choice agent (www.southgroupgulfcoast.com) for multiple quotes

+ Bundle home and auto with the same insurance company for added savings

+ Pay for the full policy term instead of monthly installments to save

+ Save your insurance for big claims - take care of the little things yourself so you have less "dings" on your record from turning in a number of small dollar claims

+ Bump up comprehensive and collision deductibles

+ Review your coverage to be certain you have the correct vehicles and drivers listed

TOP WAYS TO KEEP ON SAVING

+ Most insurance companies provide "good driver discounts" and "good student discounts"

+ Ask about "senior discounts" and credits for taking driver safety courses

+ Check into military and teacher discounts

+ Many companies are now offering "diminishing deductibles"

+ Continue being a safe driver with a good driving record

+ If you drive less, let your agent know so you can receive credit for a low mileage vehicle

+ Improve your credit record

+ Use the driver monitoring devices; they are not as creepy as they seem, and you use them for about 30 days and then take them out and send them back --- and you can save a bunch on your insurance!!
