Cheaper car insurance is a quest on which many motorists find themselves every year, and many have failed to find a measure of success in years gone by. However, car insurance is not black and white today. Instead, there are many options, questions and hints and tips that you can tap into to lead you directly to cheaper car insurance. Most of them actually refer to personal use of your car and your driving habits and so those factors are nothing new for you, except for the fact that car insurance companies now take them into account in order to give you cheaper car insurance options!

Many people seeking insurance want insurance rates that are not exorbitant but are affordable. The problem is that most insurance policies provided by insurance companies are usually prohibitive. The chances of getting a cheap car insurance quote are very slim.

Cheaper car insurance as a result of personal driving habits is a revolutionary and innovative concept that has opened up the world of insurance to motorists that would otherwise be paying over the odds for their compulsory protection against accidents, theft and vandalism. It is amazing just how much cheaper car insurance can actually save you in terms of your yearly premium when the following is taken into account:

Yearly mileage - The majority of companies now ask for an approximate yearly mileage when quoting you for car insurance because the fewer miles you use every year, the cheaper car insurance actually is for you. The significance of this is that the fewer miles you actually do, the less time you spend on the road and you also tend to stay closer to home. The former reduces the chance of you actually having an accident, as does the second to some extent. However, the second also taps into the notion that if you stay closer to home then the less likely you are to become a victim of car crime because in theory, you now where to park to avoid crime as far as possible. This all adds up to cheaper car insurance as a result of fewer claims.

Weekly usage - This is also used to assess how likely you are to have an accident because your premiums are in effect designed only to pay for the time you spend on the road. For example, if you use your car on three days a week on average then you pay less than someone that uses his or her car every day. However, not all insurers actually offer this. Those that do offer this form of cheaper car insurance are actually in the minority. If you do use your car three days a week or less, you should ask if insurers actually offer cheaper car insurance to suit this type of need.

We’ve been a little disappointed with the Acura cars we’ve seen lately, so the 2008 Acura TL Type-S surprised us with its fun performance. Last year’s Acura RL in particular was a letdown, as its electronics were old and its performance wasn’t particularly fun or economical. But the 2008 Acura TL Type-S proved to be a car we wanted to drive. And although its electronics are dated, its audio system is one of the best around.

A good part of what made this TL fun was that Type-S trim, signifying the sport-tuned version of the car. The Type-S gets a slightly bigger V-6 engine than the base model, and a limited slip differential. But it’s still a front-wheel-drive car, making handling a bit weird, and the optional five-speed automatic transmission kills the car’s performance. Fortunately, our test car came with Honda’s six-speed close ratio manual, a transmission we’ve enjoyed on many other Honda cars such as the S2000 and the Civic Si.

Test the tech: GPS sport drive
As our car was equipped with navigation, we took it out on a search for good driving roads. GPS is the perfect companion for our favored activity of exploring, as we can drive into all sorts of unknown territory with no fear of getting lost. For our drive, we set our initial destination as Kentfield, just north of San Francisco.

On the first leg of our drive, we found the TL Type-S very manageable in traffic through the city, dealing with start-stop conditions and quick lane changes to avoid double-parked cars, using second and third gear work through it all. The navigation system in the TL Type-S has live traffic, supplied through XM satellite radio, so we could see by the green lines highlighting the Golden Gate Bridge that cars were moving above 40 mph. Once we crossed the Bay and got onto the freeway, we could open the car up a bit. The 286 horses from the engine were just as lively at 20 mph as they were at 70 mph, letting us roar along in the fast lane.

But the nav system guided us off the freeway, taking us through suburban streets to Kentfield. After that, we continued north, heading for an area where the navigation system showed winding roads with infrequent intersections. As we drove, the roads got more and more interesting. We sped along Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, a two-lane road with some good stretches but too much traffic for any real fun, which led us to the Nicasio Valley Road. The navigation system’s maps made this road look like fun, and we weren’t disappointed. The road had little traffic and many good corners, so we were able to put the TL Type-S through its paces.

We get our performance computer hooked up for a drive down a fun country road.

On our first good corner, we downshifted and braked, then hit the gas as we attacked, following our line through it. The car had plenty of power for this maneuver, but we immediately had to compensate for some understeer. It wasn’t excessive, but more than we would expect on a performance-oriented car. We also noticed a little body roll. We continued up the road, trying out more corners and getting more familiar with the car’s handling, keeping on in a northerly direction on the equally fun Point Reyes-Petaluma Road.

At some point we reckoned a road trip to Oregon wasn’t a good fit for the day, so we checked the navigation to figure out how to get back to San Francisco. We decided to try the Hicks Valley Road, which the map showed heading over to the coast. This stretch proved to be roughly paved with many very tight corners; in other words, a real challenge. As we dove into these hard turns, the TL’s front tires felt like they were squirming around, probably because of the limited slip differential fighting with the traction control. At this point we wished Acura had equipped the TL Type-S with the all-wheel-drive system from the RL and RDX. But weird control feeling aside, the car didn’t lose traction. The rest of our drive was a scenic and much slower cruise, because of tourist traffic, down Highway 1 and back into San Francisco.
