Insurance expenses can rise to several thousand dollars per year. It all depends on several factors, including the model of the vehicle, driving experience and history, coverage limits, annual mileage, and so on. Drivers can get better rates if they:

  • Bundle policies. A person can easily bundle car insurance with homeowners/renters/condo insurance and earn a valuable discount. When completing online questionnaires, the user is asked if he owns the home/apartment where he/she lives. If the user owns it, he will be provided with a bundle option. In some cases, a person can save as much as 20% simply by bundling coverage.

  • Use multi-vehicle plans. Covering multiple vehicles under the same insurer will also be financially rewarding. Multi-vehicle plans also provide a discount. The value of the discount is directly proportional to the number of insured vehicles.

  • Carefully select the value of the deductibles. It is up to the policyholder to set deductibles. The usually recommended value is $500, for both comprehensive and collision coverage. However, the policyholder can choose higher values and lower the overall premiums.

  • Drop unnecessary coverage on older cars. If the car is older than 10 years, keeping full coverage is likely to make the owner overpay. Since a car’s value diminishes over time, keeping full coverage for cars older than 5-6 years can lead to unnecessary costs.

‘Much cheaper than … rental payments’

In August 2017, Kirsten and Devin Trout decided they needed a change. Devin, a touring musician, was always on the road for work, and one day, both he and his wife had an epiphany of sorts: They needed to be in Nashville.

“I was just watching Netflix and something just told me [that] we need to move to Nashville,” Kirsten said. “I definitely think it was like a God thing ‘cause Devin was listening to a podcast and he felt the same thing … We told our family the next day we were moving.”

While browsing the internet, the 28-year-old entertainer stumbled upon a video of a man living contentedly in his van, which inspired him to start looking into alternative housing options.

“I’m, like, at home by myself with my thoughts of wanting to move to Nashville so I’m spending all my nights on YouTube … researching all this stuff and I just [found] a video of some guy living in his van,” Devin explained. “It was like a 30 or 40-minute video. I ate that whole video up and after that … spent all night sending [Kirsten] videos of this.”

Kirsten wasn’t too keen on the idea of sharing a small van with her
