Ultimately, as any vehicle gets older, it’s a smart financial move to drop coverage for physical damage claims from the insurance policy. As a vehicle loses value over time, the extra cost of comprehensive and collision coverage exceeds the benefit of having full coverage.

Eliminating physical damage coverage on an older Lincoln MKC could save in the ballpark of $816 annually, depending on where the physical damage deductibles were set and the age of the driver.
