How do I set up car insurance for my new car?

I just got a new Dodge Durango. Since this is my first car, I don’t even know where to begin. For instance, how do I get car insurance?

“That’s so exciting—congrats on your Dodge!
To set up car insurance for your new car, first you’ll want to get at least three quotes.
Insurance companies will need the following information in order to provide the most accurate price:
  • Your date of birth
  • Your address
  • Your driver’s license number
  • Your occupation
  • Your marital status
  • Your education level
  • Your driving history
  • Your insurance history
  • The year, make, and model of the car
  • The vehicle identification number (VIN)
  • The date of car purchase
  • The person to whom the vehicle is registered
You can get quotes over the phone or online. But the easiest way is to let
