*Chevrolet earns the top two spots as pickups continue balancing capability and value*

Modern pickups serve a wider range of drivers than ever before. Many owners rely on them for work during the week and recreation on weekends, making long-term ownership costs increasingly important.

Insurance premiums reflect more than a vehicle's purchase price. Repair complexity, replacement part availability, theft frequency and safety systems all play a role in determining insurance costs.

"Comparing insurance before signing paperwork is one of the easiest ways shoppers can avoid unexpected expenses," Gao said.

**Methodology**

Mercury Insurance's Research & Development team analyzed insurance costs for new 2025-2027 model year trucks. Rankings are based on Mercury's internal insurance analysis. Individual premiums vary based on driver profile, location, coverage selections and other underwriting factors.
