Thumbs down Most Expensive Insurance!

My insurance lady told me Dodge trucks are the most expensive trucks out there to insure but nobody knows why!?

Any ideas?

It all has to do with satistics. How many of what vehicles get into wrecks in your area, what the most popular vehicles are by thiefs in your area... ECT

The front ends cost the most out of the trucks on the market. Really it is how Dodge marks their OEM parts up. How insurance companys look at damage is how much does a OEM part cost to replace if damaged.

My insurance broker showed me the price difference between FORD, Dodge and Chevy back in 2003 when I bought my First Dodge. Needless to say fixing a Dodge after a front end collision was almost twice the cost as Ford or Chevy.

The replacement parts are numerous and expensive. Also do to the extreme mass, they severely damage anything in their path if they're using an aftermarket bumper.
