"Full coverage" is not a legal term — it usually means liability (required) plus collision and comprehensive, which pay to repair or replace your own car after a crash, theft, weather or vandalism.
In Nebraska full coverage costs more than the state minimum because it protects your vehicle, not just other people. The average Nebraska driver pays about $980/yr (NAIC, 2023) across all policy types; a minimum-only policy sits below that and full coverage above it. The Nebraska state minimum is 25/50/25 ($25k bodily injury per person, $50k per accident, $25k property damage).
Full coverage tends to be worth it when: your car is newer or financed/leased (lenders require collision + comprehensive), you could not easily pay to replace it out of pocket, or you park where theft and weather risk is higher. On an older, low-value car, the annual collision/comprehensive premium can approach the car’s value — at that point liability-only may make more sense.
