Buying an RV can be a wonderful, yet costly, experience. Having adequate insurance in place is a must, and our team at DePaulo Agency in Scotia, NY, shares some things first-time buyers might not know.<\/p>\n

1. Do You Need RV Insurance on a Camper?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Campers are towed, not driven, making insurance optional in New York and most other states. The lender typically requires full coverage to protect their investment if there is a loan on the unit.<\/p>\n

2. What Does RV Insurance Cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Different types and ages of RVs, along with their price range and various amenities and features, factor into coverage costs. Some other details that play a role include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Driving History<\/li>\n
  • RV Driving Experience<\/li>\n
  • Usage<\/li>\n
  • Credit Score<\/li>\n
  • Deductible<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    3. What Does RV Insurance Cover?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    While most camper coverage is basic with collision and comprehension, RVs carry more extensive inclusions that include:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Collision<\/li>\n
    • Comprehensive<\/li>\n
    • Bodily Injury<\/li>\n
    • Property Damage Liability<\/li>\n
    • Personal Injury Protection (PIP)<\/li>\n
    • Uninsured Motorist<\/li>\n
    • Limited Property Damage<\/li>\n
    • Property Protection<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      4. There are Key Coverages That Are Optional<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      Some things that owners might want to be covered are available only with supplemental policy add-ons.<\/p>\n

      Total Loss Replacement<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      Only available on previously untitled RVs aged up to just a few years qualify for total loss replacement coverage. Others are insured for actual cash value or an agreed value.<\/p>\n

      Custom Equipment<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      If you have tricked out or upgraded your RV’s interior or exterior, custom equipment coverage helps with costs should damage or theft occur. $1000 is automatically included, but costly upgrades mean you should increase those limits.<\/p>\n

      Personal Effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      Also not usually included in RV policies is personal effects coverage. This covers your belongings in an RV; homeowners insurance may cover them, but the homeowner’s deductible would apply.<\/p>\n
