Ford Cars and Trucks Affordable to Repair; Lower Insurance Rates for Delaware and Maryland Ford Owners

In a recent report from the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration it was found that Ford vehicles were the most affordable vehicles to repair after collisions. The NHTSA based their report on insurance claims costs. This report should generate lower insurance premiums for owners of Ford vehicles since insurance providers use this data to establish premiums.

The National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration 2010 Relative Collision Insurance Cost Booklet shows more Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles as segment leaders for lowest collision insurance cost than any other automaker. Maryland Ford Dealerships and Delaware Ford Dealerships should have this report available to help customers shopping for new Ford vehicles and help them anticipate what collision costs they might incur.

Ford Motor Company has ten segment leaders for 2009 model year categories. Some of the models include the 2009 Ford Focus, the 2009 Ford Taurus, the 2009 F-150, the 2009 F-250 and the 2009 E-350 Econoline wagon. With approximately 78% of all Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models rated better or equal to industry average in respect to collision repair costs, Ford owners are more than likely going to receive greatly reduced rates on insurance.

With these lower costs for insurance premiums and already low selling prices of Ford’s products, it has become extremely affordable to own a Ford. Ford has also reported that resale values are up 23% percent, again higher than industry average. This is great news for Ford owners that are looking to upgrade since now getting in a new Ford is more affordable than ever. Ford Motor Company has also established a special engineering center to help reduce the cost of repairs to future vehicles meaning even more savings on models like the 2010 F-150, the 2011 Mustang and the 2010 Edge.
