xoxogoodietwoshoesxoxo asked:

I am planning to buy a car before school starts again..
I was shopping on craigslist.com and some cars are cheap and sound too good to be true. like this one:
http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/car/741877685.html

but should i go for it anyway??
should i hire a mechanic to check the car out?
if so where can i find one and how much would one cost?
will my insurance be expensive?, (im under 18)
also im starting college, so this is the reason why im searching for a car at such a cheap price..
but would it be better to purchase a more expensive one and make monthly payments??? but then the insurance would be much more expensive right??

I live in Massachusetts where auto insurance can’t compete my question is?

Hey, Beautiful;-) asked:

What is the benefits of competing rates? Well duh, you say because you may get cheaper rates somewhere else but I need proof. Right now I have a ’95 Ford Escort, I have basic insurance, I’m a step 12, and I pay about $140 a month…what is better than that? Please name the state you live in.

Auto Insurance question in MA?

Ray asked:

My car was total loss in a collision accident recently. Although I can get full payment without paying the deductible, my insurance company said I was 50-50 fault. Now, my new car was cheaper than my old one but the premium was more than double. Why do you think that happen? Is it because of my previous accident?

Can a auto insurance company find out if you had accident, if you didn’t report to DMV/DPS?

andrea k asked:

I live in Texas, I got in a Car accident a couple months ago, I had full coverage so my current insurance company covered my car to get fixed. I never reported the accident to the DMV/DPS But now my insurance went up alot, I have one month to renew with this company. I was thinking about switching companies if I can find a cheaper one. If I call a new company and tell them I have noe prior car accidents would they be able to find out I had? Cause it’s not on my driving record? Thanks

Meg asked:

just want to make sure that i’m not making the wrong decision. i’m trying to save lots of money here.
currently have a benz -but since a value of a car just decreases over time, i just want to know if leasing would work out best for me.

also if you know of any super good cheap auto+renters insurance company let a girl know! 😉

Where/what is a good auto body repair shop in Houston?

xtraluvly03 asked:

I hit the fron bumper of a 95 IZUZU SUV going about 15 miles/hour. Neither the owner nor do I know of a cheap auto body repair shop. The metal portion of the bumper is bent slightly & the plastic portion of the bumper is cracked 3 inches. We’ve gone to 3 shops in Southwest Houston and they all told us the ENTIRE bumper needs to be replaced and cant be repaired because the metal is bent. They gave us estimates around $400.00, which I can’t afford. And I had an altercation with my father and he took me off his insurance 5 days before the accident so I no longer have insurance to pay. So, can anyone tell me where to find a reliable, honest, but cheap auto body repair shop in Houston?

Auto Insurance?

socomdude asked:

I am 18 years old and I am trying to buy insurance for my car. I noticed that the prices for insurance are really high for teen drivers. I was just wondering if my parents could buy the insurance under their name so the payments can be cheaper or does the policy have to be under my name.
My car is registered under both my father and my name.

I Need Auto Insurance in Florida. State farm is dropping me from my parents policy. Advice please?

krist2616 asked:

I have had a few accidents in the last 11 years, including one in sept 2007 – that State Farm just paid out I guess. They decided this was the last time and my agent is dropping me. How much coverage do I need in Florida? I would like about a $750 deductible to keep the payment low, but do I need both comprehensive and collision. What is the bare minimum and can anyone recommend good places to look for good coverage at cheap prices? I see those 1-800-General NOW commercials too. Anyone know if they’re a decent insurance company or should I stay with one of the big guys like Geico and Progressive. All advice is appreciated!

Sould I file a small claims suit against a MA auto insurance company or go through my insurance?

chad l asked:

I am getting a raw deal from Arbella Mutual Ins. after they decided I was 50% at fault for an accident that was clearly thier clients fault (even Arbella’s appraisor said so). I wanted to file a small claims suit instead of go through my insurance company & pay the deductable. But now I wonder if the process and fees are cheaper in the short term to just pay the deductable. Plus I have no idea on how to file a small claims suit (though I will research it). Any ideas?
