Insurance is required in almost all 50 states, prior to licensing your vehicles.
Insurance quotes online often mislead you as to the actual cost of insurance, and yet, online insurance offers the best quotes.
There are ways of getting correct quotes, on your vehicles, online.
1) Know your vehicle This may seem unnecessary, but know how to spell your vehicle model and make.
Misspellings on vehicle insurance quotes attribute to many errors.
2) What year was that? You can find the year your vehicle was built inside the driver's door just below the latch.
Be sure you check.
Most titles are correct, but some are not, and it does make a difference.
3) Check that VIN A VIN Number is a Vehicle Identification Number located just under the edge of the windshield, visible from outside the driver's side, just in front of the door hinge.
Write it down, check it two or three times, and verify it with the title.
4) Location is important If you live on the outskirts of a major city, but rarely drive downtown, say so.
Know if your vehicle will be garaged or not.
Verify your zip code in the area where your vehicle is most often parked.
5) Mileage driven each year How many miles do you drive every year? Where do you drive those miles? Those questions may be on the application, but if they aren't you'll want the information when you speak with the insurance agent.
Keeping a log of vehicle maintenance, helps during tax season as well as, when you sell your vehicle.
Information about vehicle maintenance is necessary in the event mechanical failure causes an accident.
You can obtain a maintenance log inside the Real Auto Maintenance for Real People Manual at http://www.
