Arranging Your Auto Insurance

Before you drive your new vehicle home from the dealership, you'll probably be required to show proof of auto insurance. So by arranging your insurance now, you'll save yourself hassles later. And by checking the insurance rates for your new car or truck before you buy the vehicle, you'll avoid unpleasant insurance rate surprises later. (You'd be surprised at how many people end up in financial trouble because they discover too late that the required insurance for their new vehicle is more than they can afford.)

First call your own insurance carrier (assuming you have insurance for your present car) and ask them how long the insurance on your old car will carry over to your new one. Most insurance companies will give you a few days to transfer over the coverage from one vehicle to another. Then ask your insurance carrier the projected rates for your new car. Be sure to write down all of the details.
