Ran into this video today.
So this brings up lots of interesting questions to research. This video is probably specific to Australia but the exact same questions should be posed to insurance companies around the world. And now that Elon says the CT is practically a boat, perhaps we need boat insurance too.
Some of the questions one might want to get answered:
So... Anyone have experience with any of these situations? Any great insurance companies/policies that you have experienced?
So this brings up lots of interesting questions to research. This video is probably specific to Australia but the exact same questions should be posed to insurance companies around the world. And now that Elon says the CT is practically a boat, perhaps we need boat insurance too.
Some of the questions one might want to get answered:
- Is your vehicle insured off-road?
- Even if you are insured off-road, what are you actually covered for?
- What is the coverage differences between public listed roads vs non-listed roads?
- Is the track you are on listed on a map?
- Are you covered on the beach? Beach driving vs parked on the beach. What if your vehicle gets taken by the tide?
- What if you drive over a sand dune too fast?
- What if you are crossing a river or other body of water? What if you have a snorkel to enhance the vehicles ability to travers waterways.
- Are you covered while taking 4WD training classes?
- Will 4WD training classes impact your insurance costs?
- Are you covered while driving in a 4WD park?
- Does the insurance policy cover the accessories that have been installed on your vehicle? Is there a way to itemize the covered accessories?
- Once a claim has been filed, is there a way to remove the accessories that are still in working order for use on another vehicle?
- In a total write-off case, how much reimbursement do you get for the accessories beyond the actual vehicle?
- If the vehicle is damaged in a remote area, does the insurance pay recovery costs to retrieve the vehicle from a remote location so that damage can be assessed/repaired?
- Must the vehicle be returned to a towable location before the insurance claim can be assessed and paid out?
- If the vehicle is completely destroyed in a remote location, what evidence is needed to file a claim?
- Is damage sustained to your vehicle while assisting in the recovering another vehicle covered?
So... Anyone have experience with any of these situations? Any great insurance companies/policies that you have experienced?
