Eugene, I'm no insurance expert but I think that "declared" value insurance
could be re-named "not to exceed" insurance. If you declare a value of $5000
and the car is totaled you may not get $5000. The insurance company always has
the right to replace the car, if they feel (mostly their choice) that you can
replace the car for less than $5000 they won't be writing you a check for $5000.
