Want cheaper insurance coverage rates for your HUMMER H2? I really doubt anyone fancies paying their premiums for insurance coverage, especially when their premiums are through the roof.
With so many insurance coverage companies to choose from, it’s difficult to pick the right insurance company.
The best way to get policy rate comparisons takes advantage of the fact most larger insurance companies actually pay money for the chance to give rate comparisons. To start a quote, the only thing you need to do is provide a little information like daily mileage, which vehicles you own, if a SR-22 is needed, and whether you are single or married. The data is then submitted to insurance companies and they provide comparison quotes quickly.
Some insurance providers don’t always publicize all disounts in a way that’s easy to find, so the list below details a few of the more well known and the harder-to-find discounts you could be receiving when you buy insurance coverage online.
Keep in mind that most discount credits are not given to all coverage premiums. A few only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as collision or personal injury protection. So when it seems like all the discounts add up to a free policy, that’s just not realistic.
The best insurance companies and a partial list of their discounts are included below.
Before buying, ask every company to apply every possible discount. Some discounts may not be available in every state. To see a list of providers that can offer you the previously mentioned discounts, click here to view.
When it comes to choosing the best insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there isn’t really a perfect coverage plan. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs so your insurance needs to address that. For example, these questions may help highlight whether or not you will benefit from professional help.
If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you then you might want to talk to an agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, complete this form or click here for a list of insurance companies in your area.
Understanding the coverages of your car insurance policy can help you determine appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. The terms used in a policy can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are the usual coverages offered by car insurance companies.
Collision protection
This pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with another car or object. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision coverage pays for things like crashing into a ditch, scraping a guard rail and rolling your car. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
Medical expense insurance
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for immediate expenses such as hospital visits, doctor visits, prosthetic devices, surgery and EMT expenses. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers
Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.
Auto liability insurance
Liability coverage provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to other people or property in an accident. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.
It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see values of 25/50/25 that means you have $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability can pay for claims such as legal defense fees, medical services, attorney fees and repair costs for stationary objects. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.
Comprehensive (Other than Collision)
This pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as hitting a deer, damage from getting keyed and damage from flooding. The maximum payout your car insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

I’m in North Charleston, South Carolina, and GEICO rates were affordable. I get multi-vehicle and multi-policy discounts. They have free quotes online.

I got decent rates for a 2006 HUMMER H2 in Saint Paul, MN. Ended up at right around $200 every six months with Auto-Owners. Was with Erie.

Live in the western part of Hartford, CT. Quoted rates from State Farm, AAA, and Encompass for my HUMMER and I think I cut my rates about $40 each month. Even increased coverage a bit.

Good detail in your article. I live just to the east of Saint Paul, MN. I quoted with Allstate, Auto-Owners, and some I forget for my HUMMER and saved just over $470 a year. Insured with Travelers before. I have kids on my policy, too.
