Say your vehicle is involved in an accident and needs to be repaired. You go through the insurance company to get the process rolling. You file a claim and they will most likely give you the name of a body shop that can repair your vehicle. Since the insurance company gives you the body shop, you feel like you are obligated to use that body shop. That is simply not the case. It is your vehicle and you are allowed to take it to any body shop you would like. Who knows, you might have a friend that does it or something like that. But you can choose where you take your vehicle. Do not let the insurance company tell you where you can or can’t take your vehicle. Below you will find the pros and cons of taking it to the body shop the insurance gives you or taking it where you want.
Using Insurance’s body Shop
For the most part, body shops have agreements with local insurance agents to capture their business when one of their clients get in an accident. This way they have a body shop to send their vehicle to. Most people think you have to take your vehicle to the shop the insurance company uses. But that is simply not correct! You cant take your vehicle to any body shop you would like. But there are some advantages and disadvantages to both side of the argument.
Going to your Preferred Body Shop
Not everyone is going to want to through the insurance company’s body shop. You have every right to want to take your vehicle to get it fixed where you want. You may have a body shop that you have been using for a long time and only trust them to get your vehicle back to how it was before the accident.

Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 Bison Announced
Yesterday, August 16th, Chevrolet announced that they will be releasing a Silverado 1500 Bison edition. This is a collaboration with American Expedition Vehicles (AEV). The Chevrolet Colorado already has a Bison edition so the natural move would be to make one for the the Silverado 1500.
“Our most recent collaboration with AEV resulted in the much-acclaimed Colorado ZR2 Bison. We’re thrilled to team up again to bring customers Chevrolet’s next chapter of off-road dominance, this time on Silverado,” said Scott Bell, Chevrolet vice president. “The 2023 Silverado ZR2 Bison unlocks the pinnacle of the nameplate’s off-road capability.”
The ZR2 is the most capable off-road vehicle Chevrolet has released to date. So it was the natural selection to be the vehicle of choice when it came to collaborating with AEV. The CEO of AEV said this at the time of announcement, “The Silverado ZR2 Bison checks all the boxes — robust stamped steel bumpers, complete underbody protection, a factory-tuned off-road suspension, and locking differentials front and rear. We are confident off-road enthusiasts are going to love this truck.” The standard ZR2 Silverado already comes with upgraded off-road equipment but the Bison edition has a little bit more.
