I have a brother who wants to join me in Nevada, and I am listing all the pros of his coming here, but not sure about car insurance costs. This is his truck:

Brand new 2008 3/4 ton Dodge Ram 2500 model number, diesel engine 6.7 liter, 4 door quad cab short bed

Full coverage for a year. Any ball park figures or do you know where I can find out? Thanks a lot.

If you need to ask you cannot afford it...

What?
That doesn't really help at all.

It's gotta be better than Taxachusetts.

GEICO and Progressive will both give you some quotes along with a few from competitors.

I don't know what MA is, but NV has some of the highest insurance rates around. I would guess it won't be cheaper, but compared to MA probably not much more. I'll take a stab at around $1500 a year IF he has a flawless driving record. Accidents and speeding tickets would probably up that at least a $1000 or more.

Oh, and he will have to pay probably about $600 to register that vehicle, annually, but it will drop some after a few years.

But doesn't MA have a high income tax? That would be 0 in NV, and property taxes range from about 0.7% to a little over 1%.

Rent will be cheaper. I can't imagine a scenario where his cost of living would be higher in NV, unless he has a problem with gambling and hookers.

I just bought a new 08 expedition, after all of the discounts for safety equipment, alarm, associations, etc I am paying $1800 per year, through Geico and only 1 traffic infaction in the last 3 years

Since the wife and I are planning on moving to PA in the foreseeable future I decided to get a quote for that state, and with the same coverages I will be paying $1100 a year

Thanks a lot, all of you. I know car insurance was high, just didn't know it would be that high. The lack of state income tax helps, though.

try farmers insurance.. my quotes for Ohio - full coverage $750 deductible - for 2 YES TWO 2008 Scion XB's - no incidents for my wife, 1 speed for me = $985 FOR BOTH for a year.... i had geico and aig previously.. what a ripoff.

I pay in full once a year and also have my homes covered.

I talked to my insurance agent about this when I started looking at moving to Vegas, and they quoted me $700/yr on my brand new 2008 Nissan Rogue. That was on 15/25/15 collision/liability/uninsured motorists. I've also got comprehensive with a $100 deductible. I told them I wanted to relocate to Vegas and they called me back with a quote on transfering what I had. This is all from Allstate. I'm 26 and have 1 speeding ticket that is a year old...clean record after that.
