A good explanation of Agreed Value and ACV, but their explanation of Stated
Value is a bit vague. To be more clear, they should explain that under Stated
Value coverage, the Stated Value amount is not the amount that will be paid at
the time of loss. Stated Value is the amount used to rate the cost of the
Physical Damage insurance in the absence of any other means to rate that
coverage for the vehicle.
You do not want "Stated Value" aka "Stated Amount" coverage. You want "Agreed
Value".
