The single downside to getting quotes like this is you don’t know exactly which insurance companies you want pricing from. If you wish to select specific providers to compare rates, we have a page of insurance companies in your area. Click to view list.

If your comparisons have different coverage information it will be impossible to determine the lowest rate for your Lincoln Mark VII. Quoting even small variations in insurance coverages could skew the results. And when price shopping your coverage, quoting more increases your odds of finding a lower rate than you’re paying now. Some smaller insurers to not give online rate quotes, so you need to compare price quotes on coverage from those companies, too.

Are you earning every discount?

Some insurance providers do not advertise all available discounts in a way that’s easy to find, so the list below gives a summary of a few of the more well known and also the more inconspicuous discounts you could be receiving when you buy car insurance online.

• One Accident Forgiven – Not necessarily a discount, but companies like Allstate, State Farm and Geico permit an accident without getting socked with a rate hike if you are claim-free prior to being involved in the accident.
• Renewal Discounts – Select companies give a discount for buying a new policy before your current expiration date. You may see this discount when you get car insurance quotes online.

When in doubt talk to an agent

• Do I have coverage for damage caused while driving under the influence?
• Do I need an umbrella policy?
• Can I afford to pay high deductible claims out of pocket?

If you can’t answer these questions but a few of them apply then you might want to talk to a licensed agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, take a second and complete this form.

Insurance coverage breakdown

Understanding the coverages of your policy can help you determine appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for expenses for ambulance fees, surgery, chiropractic care and hospital visits. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Coverage applies to you and your occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Comprehensive insurance – Comprehensive insurance coverage will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things like damage from flooding, a tree branch falling on your vehicle and vandalism. The highest amount you’ll receive from a claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Liability car insurance – This coverage can cover damage that occurs to people or other property that is your fault. This insurance protects YOU against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You commonly see liability limits of 50/100/50 which means a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability can pay for things like medical expenses, repair costs for stationary objects, medical services and attorney fees. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision – Collision coverage covers damage to your Mark VII resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage pays for claims like driving through your garage door, sideswiping another vehicle, colliding with a tree and backing into a parked car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. You can also choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – This coverage provides protection from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.
