State Farm will offer roadside assist, but if you use it, they will hit you with nonrenewal.
Don't fall for the sell of roadside assistance with State Farm. I haven't had a claim of any kind in 15 years. I just switched to State Farm because of a good quote, and I was paying entirely too much through AAA; Travelers. There was no reason for those rates to be near $200 per month. Clean record, older working woman, professional. No drinking, drugs, partying. Not even a pet. Been with AAA for 35 years—time to switch. So, offered a good rate, but after the starter went out in my car during the most brutal 20 below zero wind chills, I was hit with a nonrenewal. They say it's because it looks as if I will be using the insurance. I actually took the car right away to replace the starter and did further preventative maintenance just before I received the letter. It appears all this profiling is allowing insurers to sort anyone with any kind of risk. Why buy it? Let us get back to putting that money in our own accounts, so we can pay when we need it. We've been taken advantage of.

Bile in the mouth
Initially, they offered good value and service, but they spend money on high-profile athletes (out of our pockets). They have interns who know little about handling complex matters. After 50 years of faithful payments, one overlooked option was not explained to a young driver, who will now end up footing the bill for an accident that State Farm should have at least split the repair cost. I could not, in good conscience, recommend them.

I feel they have taken advantage of this safe driver for years.
I've been with Allstate since I was 17. I am now 79 and have both auto and home insurance with them. I have never caused an accident. I have only made one claim when a deer ran into the side of my car and dented it. They charge me about $1600 every 6 months for auto and over $1,000 a year for homeowners. That's much too high.

Deep Dive: What Affects Dodge Ram 1500 Car Insurance Rates?

Close-up of a car steering wheel with brown leather trim, featuring a logo in the center, dashboard with illuminated gauges in the background.

Many factors can affect Dodge Ram 1500 car insurance rates, including:

  • Vehicle value: The 2026 Dodge Ram 1500 starts at $42,370 and offers a 5.7-liter V8 engine for more expensive trims.[6] It has a slightly higher value than many other top-rated full-size pickup trucks, which could mean more expensive car insurance premiums.

  • Repair costs: Dodge Ram 1500 trucks are generally reliable, which can lead to lower insurance premiums. The less your insurer has to pay out to repair or replace your vehicle, the cheaper your rates will be.

  • Safety features: The Dodge Ram 1500 doesn’t have the best safety ratings. The 2025 model received mixed safety ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.[7] Insurers charge higher rates for less safe vehicles because they’re more likely to cause serious injuries and damage.
