samurai insurance
« on: March 16, 2005, 02:18:41 PM »
i have a ford explorer now that i want to sell for a samurai, so I can wheel. however, i was told that insurance for a samurai would be double that of the explorer, because they are considered such unsafe vehicles. do any of you samurai owners experience outrageous (or more than normal) insurance rates?

I pay $106.00 per six months per vehicle for a 91 Acura integra, an '85 Chevy 3/4 ton Pickup  and an  '88 Samurai for 50/100K BI, 50K PD, 5K Medical per person, 50/100K Uninsured motorist BI and  50K UM PD W/a  $250.00 deductible on the UM PD.

Both drivers over 60 W/clean driving records.    

In other words, no difference between vehicles.

When you hold the shift key down and type 4X4 it comes out $X$. Could anything be more appropriate?

ipay about $120.00 for 6 months,don't matter if it's been a car,truck,2 or 4 wd.the only time it changes is if i have more than 1 vehicle on the policy,then it drops about 10 to 15 bucks per auto.

I pay 146 every six months w/ P2 & U1 Coverage. I would think that your Explorer might be more expensive than a Sammi.

Not all that great...I pay 650/6 months. 03 4x4 Tacoma, 91 Tracker. Tracker didn't hardly addanything at all, it's almost all the Tacoma. Older vehicles are cheap to drive tho!

Yeah, my Sammi only added about 350-400/year to my Trailblazer policy.  And my driving record sux.

That's more like it.  :( In British Columbia (mandatory government auto insurance) I pay $950 for my '88 Samurai and $1,500 for my '98 Dodge Ram. That's with the maximum discount. There's no multi-vehicle discount.

I have my samurai insured as a classic car.  It costs me 400 bucks per year for full insurance with a listed value of 4500 bucks.  

It had to be 10 years old and they needed a picture to make sure it wasnt a wreck to qualify.
