The Safest Vehicles for Your Money
Most agree, safety is a top concern when buying a car. So if
you're looking for a new vehicle, you're not just looking at price -
you want to know just how safe it really is.
Insure.com
has you covered - they recently announced the best and worst vehicles
for your money when it comes to protecting passengers from injuries.
So who topped the list? Well, let's put it this way - if you're looking
to own a GMC pickup or SUV, Insure.com says you're making a great
choice. GMC models took four of the top five spots. The #2 spot was
snagged by the Porsche Cayenne.
The worst? The number one is the Fiat 500, which Insure.com says
carried the highest PIP (Personal Injury Protection) and MedPay
(Medical Payments) costs among the 750 vehicles in the 2013 model year
they studied.
Thinking of adding one of these cars to your garage? As always, I
recommend turning to to get the best deals.
