How much is Ford F-150 insurance in Colorado?
For the driver profile in our methodology, a 2024 Ford F-150 costs between $50/mo at the state minimum and $450/mo for low-deductible full coverage. Most owners land in the full-coverage row — lenders and lessors require it.
| Coverage level | What it covers | Monthly | Annual |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minimum Coverage | Other people's injuries and property only | $50 – $84 | $600 – $1,008 |
| Liability OnlyYou’re viewing this tier | Higher limits; still nothing for your car | $96 – $160 | $1,152 – $1,920 |
| Full CoverageMost owners | Adds damage to your F-150, theft, glass | $229 – $382 | $2,748 – $4,584 |
| Full Coverage + Low Deductible | Same, with less out of pocket per claim | $270 – $450 | $3,240 – $5,400 |
What liability only includes
- Liability limits above the 25/50/15 floor (typically 50/100 or 100/300 in the market — your quote sets the number)
- No required PIP in this state
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist — not listed as part of the state minimum here
- Still no comprehensive or collision on the F-150
What Colorado requires to drive a F-150
Colorado lists 25/50/15 as the liability floor. That is what makes a F-150 legal to drive — not full coverage, not a $500 deductible, and not a particular carrier.
- Liability floor
- 25/50/15
- Fault system
- Colorado is a tort (at-fault) state — the driver who causes a crash is who liability pays for.
- PIP
- PIP is not a required minimum in this state.
- Uninsured motorist in the minimum
- UM/UIM is not listed as part of the state minimum in our registry — it is typically added, not assumed.
F-150 insurance cost by model year
Newer models cost more to insure — a 2024 F-150 runs about 17% more than a 2020 — because comp and collision track replacement value and parts cost. Liability barely moves with age.
| Model year | Full coverage / mo | Liability / mo | vs. 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | $229 – $382 | $96 – $160 | — |
| 2023 | $218 – $363 | $95 – $158 | −5% |
| 2022 | $208 – $348 | $94 – $157 | −9% |
| 2021 | $199 – $332 | $92 – $154 | −13% |
| 2020 | $190 – $317 | $90 – $150 | −17% |
F-150 vs. comparable vehicles
How the F-150 stacks up against the vehicles shoppers most often cross-shop it with — the Toyota Tundra insures for about 10% less in Colorado. Same coverage, same driver profile.
| Vehicle | Full coverage / mo | vs. F-150 | Why it differs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ford F-150 | $229 – $382 | — | Above-average claim severity |
| Chevrolet Silverado 1500 | $229 – $382 | — | Silverado's loss profile is nearly identical — both sit top-10 for theft. |
| Ram 1500 | $229 – $382 | — | Ram's air-suspension trims raise repair severity slightly. |
| Toyota Tundra | $204 – $341 | −10% | Tundra ducks the theft list but repairs pricier per claim. |
F-150 insurance cost by Colorado city
Denver drivers pay about 14% above the state average while Fort Collins runs 6% below. City pricing follows claim frequency — dense-metro traffic and repair costs carry the surcharge.
| City | Full coverage / mo | vs. CO average |
|---|---|---|
| Denver | $261 – $435 | +14% |
| Aurora | $254 – $424 | +11% |
| Colorado Springs | $238 – $397 | +4% |
| Boulder | $224 – $374 | −2% |
| Fort Collins | $215 – $359 | −6% |
Why F-150 insurance costs what it costs
Liability-only on a 2024 Ford F-150 in Colorado raises the limits above 25/50/15 but still leaves the F-150 uninsured for its own damage. Collision, theft, hail, glass, and animal strikes stay with the owner.
The F-150 is a pickup in the premium MSRP tier, with above-average claim severity in our model and a 5-star NHTSA overall rating in our registry. It also carries NICB Hot Wheels rank #5, which our model applies as a comprehensive surcharge.
Liability-only here ($96 – $160) sits between the $50 – $84 minimum and $229 – $382 full-coverage bands. You are paying for higher limits, not for repairing the F-150.
Denver is modeled 14% above the CO average ($261 – $435/mo full coverage on this F-150); Fort Collins is modeled 6% below at $215 – $359. Those city factors scale the same band as the hero — they are not a second rate file.

Is liability only the right tier for you?
- The F-150 is paid off and you want more lawsuit room than 25/50/15 without paying $229 – $382 for the car itself
- You can cash-fund a total loss on this premium-tier pickup
- You are deliberately banking the $133–$222/mo gap to full coverage
- Financed or leased F-150 — comprehensive and collision are typically required
- A newer premium-tier pickup whose replacement cost still dwarfs $96 – $160
- Drivers who park in weather- or theft-exposed conditions and cannot self-insure comprehensive losses
$500 vs $250 deductible on a F-150
On a F-150 this model prices a $250 deductible at $41–$68/mo above the $500 deductible. You save $250 per comprehensive or collision claim; you pay the extra premium every month whether you claim or not.
| Tier | Deductible | Monthly | Annual | In this file |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard full coverage | $500 | $229 – $382 | $2,748–$4,584 | Default first-party deductible in this model |
| Low-deductible full coverage | $250 | $270 – $450 | $3,240–$5,400 | Priced at 1.18× the $500 band in rates.ts |
Add-ons that are not automatic on liability coverage
These are typical market add-ons, not Colorado mandates and not priced in our rate model. Confirm each line on a quote.
- Roadside assistance
Useful on a pickup you drive far from a dealer network — towing, lockout, flat.
2024 vehicles may still have factory roadside; stacking two roadside products rarely helps.
- Medical payments (MedPay)
Colorado does not require PIP, so MedPay is the usual small first-party medical add-on for occupants.
It is not a substitute for health insurance, and it is not required in this state.
Carriers that commonly quote Colorado
These are carriers we have real logos for and that commonly quote Colorado. We do not publish a per-carrier F-150 price — that would be a fabricated quote. The range on this page is the modeled band, not “from $X at GEICO.”

How to lower your F-150 rate
- Raise your deductible to $1,000. On a F-150 premium this is the single biggest lever you control directly.Saves ~$24–$46/mo
- Shop at least three carriers. Rates for the identical F-150 profile differ by 2x or more between carriers in Colorado.Saves up to $1,000+/yr
- Clean up billing. Paid-in-full, paperless, and autopay credits stack — small individually, real together, and none are applied unless you ask.Saves 3–8%
- Add an anti-theft device. The F-150 is on the NICB most-stolen list — a tracked immobilizer or kill switch earns a filed comprehensive credit with most carriers.Saves 3–10%
- Report your real mileage. Commuting under ~10,000 miles a year moves you down a rating band with most carriers, and pay-per-mile programs go further if you drive little.Saves 5–15%
- Bundle home or renters. Multi-policy is the largest standing discount most carriers file — typically 10–20% off the auto side.Saves 10–20%
About these numbers
Sources. Rate ranges are modeled from average premiums published by the Colorado Department of Insurance and industry rate data, adjusted per vehicle using NICB theft rankings, NHTSA safety ratings, MSRP tier, and repair-severity data. They are estimates, not filed quotes.
Rating profile. Unless noted: a 35–55-year-old driver with a clean record, average credit where states allow it, 12,000 annual miles, and standard $500 comprehensive and collision deductibles. Your rate will differ — that is the point of quoting.
Ranges, not averages. We publish a band rather than a single average because the spread between carriers for the same driver routinely exceeds 2x — a lone number hides the gap that makes shopping worth your time.
What this model does not do. It does not publish age-band prices, ticket/DUI/credit surcharge tables, per-carrier quotes, J.D. Power ranks, NAIC complaint indexes, or IIHS/HLDI scores. Vehicle knobs are only the four in the rate model: MSRP tier, NICB theft rank, NHTSA stars, and repair-severity tier. The $250-deductible band is the $500 band × 1.18.
Ford F-150 insurance in Colorado: FAQ
01What extra do I get vs Colorado minimum on a F-150?
Higher liability caps than 25/50/15. You still do not have comprehensive or collision. The modeled price for that middle tier is $96 – $160; full coverage on the same 2024 Ford F-150 is $229 – $382.
02What does Colorado actually require to drive a F-150?
Colorado lists 25/50/15 as the liability floor. Full coverage is a market/lender product on top of that, modeled here at $229 – $382 for a 2024 Ford F-150.
03Does F-150 insurance cost more in Denver than in Fort Collins?
In this model, yes — Denver is 14% vs the CO average ($261 – $435/mo full coverage) and Fort Collins is -6% ($215 – $359). Same 2024 Ford F-150, same driver profile; only the city factor changes.
04Does the F-150's NICB rank change this Colorado premium?
Our model applies a comprehensive surcharge when a vehicle is on the NICB top-100 list. The F-150 is rank #5. That is a modeled modifier, not a carrier’s filed theft factor for your ZIP.
