…You can buy a dream or two

To last you all through the years

And the only price you pay

Is a heart full of tears…

Laredo, Texas. August 1997.

Javier sighs as he turns the key and the familiar sound of the Chevrolet Silverado’s engine roars to life. His father has taken good care of it for him while he was gone and the truck still drives like a dream.

He has been back in Laredo for two weeks now. The town has not changed much in the years that have passed since he left for Colombia. Hell, it has not changed much since he was a kid. He can’t decide if it is comforting or not.

In many ways, he is the same man he was when he left, but at the same time he’s completely changed. He had been a young, vacillating man, running away from his own wedding. Now he’s older, and in some aspects probably still as vacillating as back then, but also tired, worn to the fucking bone. Both time and all the things from Colombia have aged him, and now he’s back, feeling like a shell of a man.

He is happy to be able to help his father with the ranch, but something about being back in Laredo just doesn’t feel right… Everyone in this town knows him, either as the bastard that ran away the night before his wedding, or as Chucho’s son or that had left to become a narc in South America and now has come back worse for wear.

He runs a hand through his hair, which is still slightly damp from his shower, before leaning his elbow on the frame of the open car window and turning on the radio as he drives through the gate of the Peña ranch. He had been up early to repair the fence on the steer paddock before the Texas sun would make the job too unbearable. It had still ended up being a hot, sweaty affair, and he was really happy when it was over so he could get back inside to take a shower and get some breakfast. But then Chucho had asked him to drive into town after he was done eating to run some errands for him, and of course Javier couldn’t say no to his old man, but not without that heavy feeling of dread settling in the pit of his stomach.

He feels like everyone is looking at him every time he goes into town, like he’s being judged by everyone he passes. He can see the whispers and the sideways glances, and it makes him feel like he’s suffocating. It’s making him feel more paranoid than he had when he was actively working on taking down drug cartels. At least he doesn’t have to worry about running into Lorraine.

Lorraine had gotten married to a man from Dallas a couple of years after Javier had run off to Colombia. The last thing he has heard is that they relocated to Oklahoma and are now living in Tulsa with a couple of kids. Javier, despite their rocky past, is happy for her. She is living a life he could never have given her, which only confirms that his decision to not marry her was right - even though he still feels ashamed of how he called off the wedding.

After turning the knob on the radio for some time he finally finds something he wants to listen to, mindlessly drumming with his fingers against the steering wheel to the rhythm of ‘Go Your Own Way’ as he drives down the dusty road that leads into town.

—

The bitter nuttiness of your morning coffee mixes on your tongue with the taste from your cigarette as you take a sip from the mug in your hand. The August heat is overwhelming, it’s 9 am, and you would normally be out on your morning walk by now, but the intense weather has made you skip it.

Bailey is lying beside you, seemingly okay with your decision, as she lies stretched out on her side with her mouth open, panting lightly, while lazily wagging her tail against the wooden floorboards. You had adopted her a couple of months after moving to Laredo a year and a half ago and she is honestly the best friend you have in this town.

You had moved into the five-bedroom home, whose front porch steps you’re currently sitting on, after your wedding to your husband, the Laredo-born and bred, Bruce Price.

You had met Bruce a little under three years ago. He had been in San Antonio for work, and you had been living your normal, trivial life, with night shifts at the club and most of your day hours being slept away. A life you had been content with, but not overly fulfilled by, feeling stuck in a never-ending circle as you lived out your days in a numbing routine. He had asked you out on a date, you accepted, and the ball had rolled from there. It had technically been a long-distance relationship, but he was so often in San Antonio that it had worked out fine, at least fine enough for you now being married to the man.

And now you have a new life. One where you actually sleep at night and get to see the sun in the daytime, which is a nice change, but you also feel more stuck than ever. You might have a new routine now, but your days seem to blend together in a blur of monotony.

Bruce is almost always busy with work, leaving you alone in this new town with no friends or family nearby. You cannot help but feel misplaced in the giant house, where you spend so much time alone. Bailey has been a godsend, offering companionship and comfort in a place where you feel like a stranger, and she makes the giant house feel a little less empty, but you still think the house is way too big just for you and Bruce.

You had been very honest with him from the start about your lack of desire to become a mother, making sure that he knew what marrying you would entail and making sure he wouldn’t be disappointed further down the line. He had been understanding, assuring you that he was okay with it, but you have begun to fear that he may secretly hope that you will change your mind.

It is something you worry about a lot, but it’s also a topic that you have a hard time bringing up with him. You do not want to make a big deal over an assumption, but the feeling of not being taken seriously about your wishes weighs you down. You don’t want to stir the pot over nothing, and it’s probably just you who is being paranoid and overthinking things. But the thought lingers in the back of your mind. The feeling of somewhat being a disappointment.

You take the last sip of your coffee before putting the mug down, feeling the bitterness linger on your tongue as you sit alone with your feelings in the summer heat. It’s a quiet morning, except for the occasional car driving by and the rhythmic, hollow thud that sounds each time the five-year-old pit bull mix’s tail hits the porch floor.

You sigh as you look down at the cigarette in your hand, which by now has almost burned all the way down to the filter. You stub it out and dump the butt in the ashtray before grabbing the ceramic. As you walk down your garden entry to empty the ashtray you notice a red Chevy you don’t recall having seen before driving by on the road, but you don’t think much of it. Maybe Mr. Nelson has got a new truck like he had mentioned wanting last time he was donating books. You absentmindedly put up your left hand in a greeting as the vehicle passes, while putting the lid back on the trash can with your right. You didn’t even look at the person behind the wheel, but you don’t want anyone in town complaining about you not exercising good neighborly courtesy.

Laredo is a town where everyone knows everyone, and that is something you still haven’t gotten used to. Most of the time, you find it almost suffocating, at least as an outsider.

You return to the porch, grabbing your empty coffee mug before heading back inside the house, making sure Bailey has had a chance to pee in the yard and that she has plenty of fresh water in her bowl before you begin to get ready to drive into town.

You are locking up the front door soon after, putting on your sunglasses as you fish your car keys up from the pocket of your denim shorts. The gravel of the driveway crunches under the soles of your chancletas as you unlock your car, hopping into the driver’s seat. Luckily it had been parked in the shade, so the car isn’t as hot as it could have been, but you still turn on the AC immediately.

Your car is a dark green 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood, it was a gift from Bruce on your one-year wedding anniversary. You had needed a new car after you had moved to Laredo, but had postponed it for almost a year. You had got by just fine without one, living close enough to the town center to be able to walk to the grocery store and the bookshop and if you needed to drive you could usually borrow Bruce’s car or he would drive you. However, he is now so often out of town that it is a rare thing to happen nowadays.

You are proud of Bruce, he has been taking over more and more of his father’s responsibilities in the firm, until he has to take over completely and take his father’s position as CEO.

You are proud but lonely…

Bruce either has long days at the office in town, or he is gone on one of his, seemingly never-ending, business trips. You still haven’t really made any friends in Laredo yet, unless you count Gladys, the 78-year-old lady who also volunteers at the charity bookstore on Main Street like you.

Bruce’s parents are nice enough, at least in smaller doses, but you don’t feel like you can really connect with them, and you definitely don’t feel close enough with his parents to spend time with them on your own. You can’t help but feel like an outsider in their family, even after being married to Bruce for over a year now. You honestly don’t think that you are the one they would have chosen for their son.

You don’t live up to the expectations from the small town’s society. You can’t help but feel out of place, and kind of like a fraud. You had met Bruce back in San Antonio when you were still dancing at the club, he had not seemed to mind, if anything he had maybe been a little too fascinated by it, but now in Laredo, in this new life with his family and the expectations that come with it, you feel like you are constantly falling short of what is expected of you.

Bruce was not like the other guys you had dated in the past, and you had liked that and it had taken you by surprise when he proposed to you. The two of you had not even been dating for a year when he popped the question. You had never been to Laredo, or even met his family, at that point. But you had been very flattered that he had wanted you as his wife and you had felt like you really were in love this time. You had also felt burned out in San Antonio and had thought that getting married and moving to a new town would be a good thing for you. Bruce was stable and you felt like he really did care for you so you had said yes to his proposal.

You probably should have waited, looking at it in retrospect. You do love him, and you are thankful for the life he is providing you, but you still can’t help feeling that you have rushed things. You had just been so happy to have someone like him to make you feel loved and secure. You had worried what his parents would say about him proposing to a woman they never had met, they had sounded like the traditional types, not something you could claim to be yourself…

You had later found out that Bruce had told them that you worked as a waitress. You understand that your previous profession can be frowned upon by some people, especially in a small town with many older residents who might have a more conservative view of the world. You know that Bruce mainly lied about it to make sure no one has a reason to look down on you, but you still can’t help but feel a little weird about it. Like you have to hide your past and pretend to be someone else entirely.

Maybe you would feel different if you worked instead of staying home and play housewife (which you definitely think you are butchering big time), if you maybe actually got a job as a waitress, it would make you feel more fulfilled. But every time you have brought up the idea of getting a job, Bruce has seemed opposed to it, brushing you off and insisting that there is no need for you to do that, saying that he prefer you to be home when he get back from work, that he don’t want you to be stressed out with a job when he can support you.

‘There is no reason to give people something to gossip about by working when you don’t have to, honey,’ he had said to you. You had wanted to argue, to tell him that you wanted a sense of purpose, something to occupy your time and mind, but you had stayed silent, not wanting to cause tension, and feeling like you should just be grateful for the life he was providing for you.

Volunteering at the bookstore had been a fine compromise. You really like it, and it feels good to have something to do, especially something that goes to a good cause, even though it is only for a few hours a few days a week. It has definitely earned you some points with the Laredo residents - points that you fear you wouldn’t have otherwise. You are an outsider, a city girl, you don't dress or act like the other women in town. Standing out in this way is a constant worry for you, something that you often think about during your morning drive or walk into town.

Not even ten minutes after you drove out of your driveway at home you’re already driving down Main Street. You, half-consciously, notice the red mystery Chevy from earlier, which is parked in front of the pharmacy a little further down the street. You only register it for a brief moment before your thoughts return to your other worries.

You easily find a place to park, turning off the engine and grabbing your purse before stepping out onto the sidewalk. You rummage through your purse trying to find your sunglasses case, not seeing where you’re not too concerned with watching where you’re going since there is almost never anyone out on the street at this time on a Tuesday morning. However, apparently, at least one other person is out and about this morning, as you inadvertently bump directly into a tall male frame while your head is halfway down your purse.

Feeling your face heat with embarrassment, you look up quickly, muttering a quick apology before hurrying on. It’s so typical you to manage to bump into the only other pedestrian on a broad and otherwise completely empty sidewalk.

You slipped away before you could get a good look at the man, but he had not been anyone you recognized from town, at least not from only getting a quick glimpse. You had been so quick to avert your gaze, but your eyes had met for a split second. But, something about the warm brown color of those eyes is sending a wave of deja-vu through your entire being. You are stepping through the door to the bookstore before it dawns on you, and you realize whose eyes the man on the sidewalk reminded you of. A pair of eyes you once knew, because years ago, those eyes had been yours for a night.

They reminded you of Javier…

…In the town of broken dreams

The streets are filled with regret

Maybe down in Lonesome Town

I can learn to forget…

Lonesome Town, Ricky Nelson

WHY YOU NEED TO CHECK FOR HIDDEN DAMAGE AFTER CAR ACCIDENTS

Deal With Hidden Damages Post Collision With Collision Care From Silver Lining Collision

Dallas US - July 15th 2024 / Silver Lining Collision /

Types Of Hidden Damage Possible Post-Collision

Identifying the types of hidden damage possible post-collision is necessary to ensure the safety and integrity of a vehicle.

Front-End Collision: After a front-end collision, hidden damage, such as frame misalignments, alignment problems, and internal engine damage, may be present. These issues can lead to uneven tire wear, handling problems, and compromised engine performance. Immediate inspection at a professional car collision repair shop like Silver Lining Collision is recommended to ensure the integrity of safety features and the engine.

Rear-End Collision: Following a rear-end collision, potential hidden damage includes trunk and rear body damage, rear axle misalignment, electrical system damage, and transmission issues. These problems can affect the vehicle's structural integrity, handling, and overall performance. A thorough inspection by a reliable collision center is essential to address these hidden damages and maintain the vehicle's safety.

Signs Of Hidden Damage

Detecting hidden car damage after a collision is vital for ensuring vehicle safety and longevity. Prompt identification and professional inspection of these signs are vital to prevent further damage and maintain the integrity of the vehicle.

Strange Noises: Unexplained noises such as grinding, squeaking, or rattling may indicate internal damage not immediately visible. These noises could stem from misaligned components, damaged suspension, or compromised wheel bearings. Addressing these auditory warning signs promptly at a collision center can prevent further deterioration and safety hazards.

Fluid Leaks: Fluid leaks, such as oil, coolant, or brake fluid, can signify critical issues in various systems. Ignoring these leaks can have serious consequences, such as engine failure, overheating, or brake malfunctions. Silver Lining Collision recommends immediate attention to fluid leaks to maintain the vehicle's safety and performance.

Electrical Malfunctions Post-collision electrical malfunctions may manifest as flickering lights, non-responsive sensors, or central computer issues. These problems can compromise safety features like airbags and antilock brakes. A meticulous inspection by a qualified technician is important to identify and rectify any damage effectively.

Alignment Problems: Minor crashes can significantly impact a vehicle's alignment, leading to symptoms such as uneven tire wear, steering wheel vibration, or pulling to one side.

Man to serve 28 years for hate crime in tire shop slaying

Anthony Paz Torres pleaded guilty to federal charges in 2015 anti-Muslim attack

A Dallas man serving time for murder was sentenced to 37 years in prison Wednesday, months after pleading guilty to federal hate crime charges in a 2015 racism-fueled mass shooting at a Muslim-owned car repair and tire shop.

youtube

Anthony Paz Torres, 39, pleaded guilty Sept. 14 to five counts of hate crime charges in the fatal shooting at Omar’s Wheels and Tires, according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Texas.

He was sentenced to the maximum penalty.

On Christmas Eve 2015, Torres shot multiple people, killing one, at Omar’s Wheels and Tires, a Muslim-owned business in Pleasant Grove.

Authorities said Torres was motivated by his desire to avenge attacks by Islamic extremists in Garland and San Bernadino, Calif.

In 2018, a Dallas County jury convicted Torres of murder and sentenced him to 35 years.

A spokesperson for the U.S. attorney’s office said the sentences will run concurrently and account for time served in state custody.

Because Torres has spent 98 months in state custody, he will be transferred to federal prison with a sentence of 346 months, or roughly 28 years.

Federal authorities said Torres made anti-Muslim comments in a visit to the shop a few days prior to the shooting and that he said he would return.

Prosecutors wrote in the news release that Torres returned on Christmas Eve and asked customers if they were Muslim.

After employees escorted Torres back to his car, he fired shots in the direction of multiple employees and customers.

He later admitted he killed one person and attempted to kill four other people because he believed they were Muslim.

Enrique Garcia Mendoza, 25, was killed in the shooting, and three others were injured. Mendoza was a bystander, and Torres also tried to run someone over with a car, authorities said.

U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said in the release that “as this sentence makes clear, hate crimes fueled by Islamophobia or bias of any kind, will be met with the full force of the Justice Department.”

“No person in this country should have to live in fear because of who they are, what they look like, or how they pray,” he said.

FBI Director Christopher Wray said in a statement that the shooting “is an abhorrent example of how deadly Islamophobia can be in our own country and the severe consequences that wait for anyone who commits acts of hateful violence.”

Leigha Simonton, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas, wrote in her statement “no one should have to live in fear because of the way they worship.”

The FBI Dallas field office, Dallas police and the Dallas county district attorney’s office investigated the case.

Mustafaa Carroll, executive director of the Dallas-Fort Worth chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said the organization welcomes the sentencing.

“We pray that God grants the victim who lost his life entry into paradise, and we pray that he grants the victims’ families solace and strength,” Carroll wrote in a statement.

*spins wheel* tell me tim's fave item of clothing, if julian has any tattoos, would demps and casey enjoy a wardrobe swap, would nate wear makeup, what is lawrence's hair like, does dallas wear jewelry?

omg flirt i love u thank u for asking me abt my boys

tim: a pocket watch his mother gave him! it was his maternal grandfather's, and his mother gave it to him shortly before she abandoned him with his father. it's like, the one item he defends with his life and takes care of it like no other. at one point, the face on it breaks due to a teammate's carelessness, and demps pays for it to be repaired for him as a surprise

julian: he has two tattoos! he has a morning glory tattooed under his pec/along his ribs on the left side of his chest for his mom (it also functions as dual symbol, physically for his mom but metaphorically for his character arc. morning glory's represent transformation and renewal, as well as fleeting beauty and the transient nature of life.) on the inside of his right wrist, he has a wispy/smokey looking snake

demps and casey: casey would love it because he'd get to be wearing all these nice clothes, like stunned at how high quality they are and how soft they are and would strut around like "boi i look dapper as FUCK" meanwhile demps would be having an existential crisis. he'd be in casey's team gear and he'd be like "????? how does this protect you from the cold?? how does this protect you from the sun, from the harsh weather?? why is it so thin, i could literally rip this????" and would cry at the sight of the shorts because oh god his ankles

nate: nate would 1000% wear makeup, mainly tho in the privacy of his own home. he'd have no problem wearing foundation or anything for photoshoots and would honestly probably show up to them wearing it bc he knows it makes himself look good. if he ever gets caught with makeup on he can just shrug and say "girldad" so he doesnt get chirped by his teammates. ukko and miry know, tho, and laugh at him.

lawrence: that man doesn't take care of his hair at all. it's honestly a light brown but it appears dark bc of how greasy it is (he's an old west pinkerton agent, i mean cmon) and its always slicked back and shoved beneath a broad hat and his wife's always pissed bc of how much she has to wash it and scrub it when he comes back. she purposefully shaves the side but allows him to keep the top long in order to keep in with the "style" of the time but with how thick his hair is she refuses to allow it to be any longer than that or for the sides to grow out.

dallas: this man is a jewelry hog. if they rob a place he always takes a bit of jewelry for himself before he fences the rest. he likes swapping them and stylizing them with his outfits. he hates when they get into a gunfight and he looses parts of his jewelry, because he takes them as little trophies and feels like a bit of his history has been taken from him. after his bf/partner-in-crime (literally) dies, he takes the man's cufflinks and always wears them.

#i love u #tim (oc)#demps (oc)#nate (oc)#julian (oc)#casey (oc)#dallas (oc)#lawrence (oc)

With average car insurance prices in Texas topping $1,800 per year, drivers are motivated to find ways to reduce their annual premiums. While minimum liability coverage is required, keeping rates affordable is key for most households. The Lone Star State's high accident rates, crowded urban areas, lawsuits, uninsured drivers and auto theft rates contribute to elevated pricing. But with proactive shopping and smart policy decisions, Texas motorists can secure lower insurance rates to meet their budgets and needs. This comprehensive guide provides actionable tips to cut insurance costs while still carrying adequate protection. We'll explore minimum requirements, pricing factors, discounts and other savings strategies. Let's get started. Understanding Car Insurance in Texas Why Carrying Auto Insurance is Crucial in Texas While it's tempting to trim back on insurance to save money, doing so leaves drivers dangerously exposed. Texas has some of the highest rates of serious auto accidents and fatalities in the U.S. In 2020 alone there were over 297,000 crashes reported statewide resulting in 3,896 deaths. Urban areas like Houston and Dallas see high volumes of accidents. The odds of being in a collision are high. Texas is also an "at fault" state, meaning the negligent driver who caused the accident is fully liable for damages. Without sufficient insurance, a moment of distraction behind the wheel can lead to crippling expenses. Minimum liability insurance covers injuries to others and property damage you cause up to policy limits. Carrying robust coverage options protects your own vehicle, medical bills and lost income as well. Don't put your assets at risk by going without proper insurance. Average Car Insurance Prices in Texas Overview of Minimum Car Insurance Requirements in Texas Texas drivers are legally required to carry a minimum level of liability coverage. Failing to meet these requirements can lead to fines, license suspension and further financial implications after an at-fault accident. Bodily Injury Liability Texas requires: $30,000 per person bodily injury liability $60,000 per accident bodily injury liability This covers medical bills, lost wages, rehabilitation, long-term care and pain and suffering damages for others hurt in a collision you cause. Experts recommend carrying 100/300 or higher limits if possible. Property Damage Liability Drivers must carry at least: $25,000 per accident property damage liability This pays to repair or replace another driver's vehicle or property if damaged in an at-fault collision. Again, $50,000 or higher limits are wise. Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Bodily Injury Also mandated in Texas: $30,000 per person uninsured motorist coverage $60,000 per accident uninsured motorist coverage This type of coverage protects you and passengers if injured in a crash caused by a driver with no insurance or insufficient coverage. Personal Injury Protection (PIP) Personal injury protection coverage is no longer required in Texas but still offered by many insurers. This optional coverage pays medical expenses for you and passengers after an accident regardless of fault. While minimum liability insurance is required, investing in robust coverage options is also important to fully protect your finances. Next we'll explore how to keep the overall cost of adequate insurance reasonable. 10 Smart Strategies to Reduce Car Insurance Premiums in Texas Drivers have many options to potentially decrease auto insurance costs in Texas while still carrying proper protection. Here are some of the most effective ways to save. 1. Compare Quotes From at Least 5 Insurers One of the quickest ways drivers can save on Texas car insurance is getting quotes from multiple providers. Insurers consider different risk factors and use varying formulas to set premium prices. Rates can vary dramatically between insurers. Experts recommend comparing at least 5 quotes, and the more the better.

Be sure to get quotes with identical coverage limits for accurate comparisons. Both large national brands and regional Texas insurers should be included in your search for the best value. Compare quotes through insurer websites, independent agents and online insurance quote platforms. Drivers who compare rates when policies are up for renewal typically find opportunities to lower premiums and/or enhance coverage. Don't let policies auto-renew without shopping around first. 2. Ask About Usage-Based "Pay-Per-Mile" Discounts Usage-based insurance programs that base rates partly on actual driving behaviors are catching on quickly in Texas. Providers like Progressive, Allstate, and State Farm now offer these voluntary programs. Drivers install a small device in their vehicle or use a mobile app to track mileage, speed, acceleration, braking, time of day driven and other metrics. The data is analyzed over a set review period of often 6 months. Those with low mileage and safe habits like avoiding excessive speeding or hard braking can earn substantial discounts. However, risky driving can also increase your costs under these telematics programs. Savings for safe drivers can range from 10% up to 30%, making usage-based insurance worthwhile for many motorists. But it may not be ideal for those with privacy concerns or extremely high annual mileage. 3. Take Advantage of All Available Car Insurance Discounts Most major auto insurance providers offer a range of discounts drivers can utilize to reduce premiums. Be sure to inquire about all possible savings opportunities. Common discounts available in Texas include: Multi-policy (bundling home and auto) - Saves up to 20% Good driver (accident-free years) - Lowers up to 30% Defensive driving course - Saves 10% or more Good student - Discounts for B average grades Low mileage - Saves ~10% for driving less than 10k miles/year Anti-theft devices - Can lower 5% or more New vehicle - Savings for safety tech like AEB Renewal - Savings for retaining a policy with an insurer Also ask about affinity discounts for belonging to groups like AAA or certain employers. Consider discounts when selecting insurance providers. 4. Opt for a Higher Deductible Choosing a higher deductible, the amount you pay out-of-pocket on a claim before insurance kicks in, can significantly reduce premium costs. For example, raising your deductible from $500 to $1,000 could potentially decrease your premium by 15% to 30%. Just be sure you have the funds available to cover the higher deductible amount in the event of an accident. This strategy works best for drivers with solid emergency savings and clean driving records. See if raising your deductible makes sense for your situation. You can't increase liability coverage deductibles which protect others, but you can choose higher deductibles for collision and comprehensive which cover your own vehicle. 5. Improve Your Credit Score Most major insurance companies use credit-based insurance scores as a factor when underwriting policies. Drivers with poor credit generally have to pay higher premiums compared to those with excellent credit, often 80% more. There are a few ways responsible drivers can improve their insurance credit scores: Pay all monthly bills on time - set up autopay Correct any errors on your credit reports ASAP Keep credit card balances low Limit new credit inquiries when possible Monitor your credit with free apps Maintaining great credit saves on car insurance as well as loan costs. Follow healthy credit habits to benefit your rates. 6. Keep a Clean Driving Record Traffic violations, at-fault accidents, and claims for minor repairs can seriously inflate car insurance costs. Insurance companies interpret these issues as signals you may be a high risk client. Here are some tips for maintaining a clean record to avoid premium hikes: Obey all traffic laws and avoid citations

Enroll in traffic school if you do get a ticket Drive defensively and avoid distractions Don't file small claims frequently Research vehicles' safety ratings Consider extra driver training Waiting for citations and accidents to clear your record after 3-5 years can help lower rates again. But preventing issues in the first place is ideal. 7. Choose a Car With Great Safety Ratings Insurers analyze industry crash test results, theft data, repair costs, injury claims and other statistics to assign risk profiles to vehicles. Rates are set accordingly. Vehicles with the latest safety packages, top crash test results, and lowest injury claims generally have cheaper insurance premiums. For example, a Honda Odyssey minivan will likely cost substantially less to insure than a Porsche 911 sports car. You can find model-specific risk ratings from: Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) While insurance shouldn't dictate your entire vehicle purchase, it's one factor to keep in mind. All other things equal, choosing a safe, affordable-to-insure model over a high-risk vehicle saves money. 8. Drop Comprehensive and Collision Coverage on Old Cars As vehicles age and depreciate in value, optional physical damage coverage like comprehensive and collision becomes less critical and more costly relative to the vehicle's worth. Comprehensive covers damage from weather, theft, vandalism, animal collisions and other non-accident scenarios, while collision covers accident damage from a crash. Once a car is 10 years old or has over 100k miles, it often makes sense to remove comprehensive and collision coverage and simply carry liability. You'll save substantially while self-insuring total loss risk on an older vehicle. Drivers without auto loans can cancel these optional coverages to slash premium costs. But you must maintain minimum liability limits. 9. Bundle Homeowners or Renters Coverage Purchasing multiple insurance policies with the same provider, known as bundling, can yield large discounts. Most insurers offer breaks for bundling auto with homeowners, renters or life insurance. Stacking two policies with an insurer may lower premiums by up to 15% while bundling three or more policies can save over 20% in some cases. The more policies you have with one company, the deeper the savings. Major national carriers like State Farm, Allstate, GEICO and Progressive offer some of the most competitive bundle discounts. Combine this strategy with other discounts to maximize savings. 10. Enroll in Ongoing Safe Driving Programs Insurers recognize completing additional driver safety courses correlates with lower claims risk. Programs like National Safety Council's Texas Defensive Driving provide ongoing training. Completing an initial 6-hour Texas-approved defensive driving course saves 10% on your premium for 3 years. Simply take another course later on to renew savings. The program teaches accident avoidance skills, insights on driving conditions, proper distraction avoidance, and state traffic laws. Signing up every few years keeps skills sharp and rates 10% lower. Choosing a Reputable Car Insurer in Texas With hundreds of insurance companies licensed to operate in Texas, it can be challenging picking the right provider. These key factors help identify reputable insurers: Compare Financial Strength Ratings Start by reviewing the financial strength ratings issued by unbiased agencies like A.M. Best, Standard & Poor's and Moody's. These ratings reflect an insurer's ability to pay claims reliably based on financial factors like profitability, debt levels, reserves and investments. Look for companies with "Excellent" (A or A+) ratings from A.M. Best, "Good" (A3) or better from Moody's, or "Strong" (BBB) or above from S&P. Higher ratings indicate greater financial stability.

Read Customer Feedback and Complaint Data It's also helpful to browse online customer reviews and feedback for insurers. Sites like ConsumerAffairs, BBB, and Google Reviews can provide insights on real customer experiences. You can also check official Texas complaint ratios which compare complaint volume relative to an insurer's market share. Avoid companies with consistently high complaint ratios. Positive feedback and resolution of issues indicates good customer service. But no insurer is perfect, so look for reasonable responses even to negative reviews. Consider Local and Regional Insurance Firms The major national insurance brands spend heavily on advertising and name recognition. But smaller regional and local companies can also deliver solid value. Insurance firms that operate in select states or only within Texas can offer competitive rates, market expertise, and better customer service. They include names like: Germania Insurance Texas Farm Bureau Insurance Allstate County Mutual KBK Insurance Group Falcon Insurance Agency Compare quotes from direct insurers like GEICO and State Farm as well as local options when searching for the best rates. Finding Affordable High-Risk Car Insurance in Texas Drivers classified as high-risk due to driving history, credit issues, or lapses in coverage pay considerably higher rates. But finding affordable coverage is still possible. Compare quotes from speciality insurers like Fred Loya, The General, or Direct Auto that focus on higher-risk drivers. But still shop around. Ask agents about potential discounts or ways to transition back to lower rates by maintaining clean records going forward. Drop comprehensive and collision coverage if your vehicle is older to save substantially. But keep minimum liability. Enroll in Texas defensive driving even if you don't have a recent ticket. Some courses provide conditional completion certificates accepted by insurers. Accept higher deductibles for collision and comprehensive to lower premiums, but have funds to cover the costs. Improve credit history by making all payments on time, paying down debts, and correcting errors. Poor credit drastically raises rates. Review rates again in 6-12 months after improving your record. Additional time crash-free lowers risk factors. With some diligence, drivers classified as high risk can still obtain reasonably affordable auto insurance. Don't accept initial rate quotes without exploring all options. Key Takeaways for Reducing Texas Auto Insurance Costs Trimming back critical insurance coverage is risky. But drivers have options to cut premium costs while maintaining adequate protection including: Compare at least 5 quotes from a mix of national and regional insurers when shopping Ask providers about all available discounts like bundling policies, defensive driving courses and affinity memberships Consider usage-based "pay-per-mile" insurance programs to potentially save up to 30% Raise deductibles and drop optional physical damage coverage on older vehicles if possible Maintain excellent credit history and a clean driving record to keep risk factors low Drive a late model vehicle with top safety ratings to qualify for lower premium pricing Review insurer financial strength and customer feedback before choosing a provider With the right combination of proactive policy shopping, strategic adjustments and ongoing safe driving practices, Texas drivers can find affordable auto insurance rates to suit their budget and protection needs. FAQs What is the cheapest car insurance company in Texas? According to Bankrate's analysis, the cheapest car insurance companies in Texas for minimum coverage are Geico, Houston General Insurance Exchange, and State Farm. However, the cheapest car insurance company can vary depending on factors such as your location, driving record, and the type of car you drive. How can I get the cheapest car insurance in Texas as a high-risk driver?

As a high-risk driver, it can be challenging to find cheap car insurance. However, some strategies that may help include shopping around and comparing quotes from multiple insurance companies, looking for insurance companies that specialize in high-risk drivers, taking a defensive driving course, and maintaining a clean driving record. What discounts should I ask about to get cheap car insurance quotes in Texas? To get cheap car insurance quotes in Texas, you should ask about potential discounts such as good driver discounts, multi-policy discounts, safety feature discounts, student discounts, and military discounts. Is minimum liability insurance enough coverage in Texas? While minimum liability insurance in Texas meets the state's legal requirements, it may not be enough to fully protect you in the event of a serious accident. It's recommended to consider additional coverage options, such as collision coverage and comprehensive coverage, to ensure you have adequate protection for your needs. What steps can I take to get the cheapest Texas car insurance? To get the cheapest car insurance in Texas, you can take several steps, including shopping around and comparing quotes from multiple insurance companies, raising your deductible, maintaining a clean driving record, taking advantage of available discounts, and bundling your car insurance with other insurance policies. #Wiack #Car #CarInsurance #CarRental #CarPrice #AutoLoans

The season is a challenging time for any motorized device—from cars to washing machines—and that goes for your garage door too. But don't worry! There are plenty of ways to avoid major problems in the first place and improve your experience with a new door or opener once winter hits. Here are some garage door repair tips that can help you deal with these issues:

Have your garage door inspected before the cold weather arrives.

The inspection can be done by a professional, or you might be able to do it yourself with a few tools and instructions from your hardware store. If there are any issues with your garage door, they should be addressed before the cold weather hits so that they don't become more serious problems later on in the year.

It's also important to have a routine maintenance plan in place so that when something does go wrong with your garage door, you know who to call and what steps need taken immediately (especially considering how much time could be wasted if there were major damage done).

Be sure to maintain your garage door and its accessories well.

Garage door maintenance is important because it can help you avoid costly repairs down the road.

Here are some tips you can follow:

Lubricate rolling track wheels with a silicone spray once every year or so, depending on how often you use the garage door. This will prevent them from getting stuck in place, which could lead to damage from being overworked by too much force being applied against them (i.e., when someone tries opening or closing the garage door manually).

Oil hinges every few years if they feel stiff or squeaky when using them; this will keep everything working smoothly for longer periods of time without having any issues cropping up unexpectedly later down the road due to lack of proper care before now!

Get a free quote from a professional contractor.

The best thing you can do is get a free quote from a professional contractor. Don't wait until it is too late to fix your garage door, because then you will end up paying more money, and possibly even needing to replace the entire unit!

You can also get an idea of how much it will cost to fix your garage door by calling up one of our technicians today!

Replace the springs every time they are broken or wearing out.

The spring is a critical part of your garage door, and it's important to keep them in good shape. Springs are designed to lift the door when you open it, so when they break or wear out, your garage door may not function properly. Replacing springs is generally not a difficult DIY job--but there are some things that can make the process easier:

Replace broken or worn out springs before they break completely. This will help prevent damage to other parts of your garage door system (like hinges) while also preventing injuries if something goes wrong during operation.

If one of your springs breaks while you're working on replacing them yourself, call an expert immediately! Trying to fix broken wires can be dangerous and should only be done by trained professionals who know what they're doing!

Replace your garage door opener as soon as it starts giving you trouble.

When you have a garage door opener, it's important to keep it in good shape. Garage door openers can be expensive, and if yours breaks down, it might not be worth fixing. When you notice that your opener is having problems or has stopped working altogether, the best thing to do is replace it right away.

If your garage door opener starts acting up more frequently than usual or stops working altogether for no apparent reason (like when the power goes out), consider getting a new one as soon as possible so that you don't end up with an emergency situation on your hands later on down the road.

Get The Strong Evidence on How to Preserve Your Battery-Powered Golf Cart

In today's society, electric golf carts are no longer considered a luxury item. Because of how much easier they are to handle than standard golf carts, they have quickly become standard equipment for many golfers. An electric golf trolley is the best choice if you intend to make golf more than a casual pastime, or if you are looking for a golf-related gift for a loved one.

Electric Golf Cart Repair in the Dallas Area are a terrific way to add variety to your game and improve your performance thanks to their many useful features like digital displays, adjustable distance settings, USB charging outlets, timer, clock, and pin code security system.

The maintenance of the trolley necessitates more attention and expertise than the initial purchase. When you buy from a trusted retailer, you know you're getting a product you can rely on. However, once you have it in your possession, how well you take care of it will have a significant impact on how well it performs and how long it lasts. Considering how hard it works, it is only fair that you treat it with the utmost care when storing it.

The user manual or instructions provided with your Golf Cart Financing in Texas should be followed to a tee when storing it. Batteries are included and should be taken out and charged regularly. The batteries need to be changed out as soon as they die. After each usage, wash and clean the trolley according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Wheels of the trolley should be disassembled and cleaned independently from the rest of the trolley because they are likely to be the dirtiest portions. If the trolley needs servicing, disassembly, and reassembly, you should take it to a repair center at https://golfcarranch.com/approved by the manufacturer, or the factory itself if that's an option.

The couple from Rockwall partners with Meals on Wheels

I read from the news that the couple from Rockwall partners with Meals on Wheels once again for a Christmas display in memory of their son. Brenda and David Hughes are hustling and bustling to string the estimated 60,000 Christmas lights outside their home at 1655 Plummer Drive in the Shores. They invited the community to drive by and enjoy the festive holiday display. With the colorful display, the couple from Rockwall hopes to encourage folks to stay in light in memory of their son, Nathaniel, who passed away in April 2019 at 29 because of depression. It’s really sad what happened to their son, but on the other hand, I’m happy with what they’re doing now. This time, Hughes is accepting donations of new blankets and non-skid socks. All these donations will be given to the Meals on Wheels Senior Services of Rockwall County. It’s a nice act of helping! Read more.
