What influences your insurance rates?

Car insurance premiums on a GMC Sierra 3500 Classic can vary widely subject to many criteria. Taken into consideration are:

  • Traffic citations increase rates
  • Credit rating
  • Male rates may be higher
  • Low deductibles cost more
  • Your vehicle's safety rating
  • Your occupation
  • The level of coverage
  • Whether you rent or own your home

An additional factor that can impact Sierra 3500 Classic insurance cost is the year of the vehicle. Used vehicles have a reduced actual cash value than newer models so the cost to replace them can decrease annual premiums. Conversely, newer vehicles may have safety features such as a telematics system, a collision avoidance system, tire pressure monitors, and traction control which can give discounted rates.

Coverage for liability

Sierra 3500 Classic liability coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property. Liability coverage pays for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so you should buy higher limits if possible.

Collision insurance

This coverage covers damage to your GMC resulting from a collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your Sierra 3500 Classic can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. It's also possible to raise the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum payout you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle's value is low it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Insurance for medical payments

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for expenses such as doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
