1. It doesn't matter where you buy the car. You only need full coverage insurance if you are making payments on it. BTW...'Hi' from a Fresno-ian. I grew up visiting Dinkey all the time.
2. If you have a lien on it you should have full coverage--some states require it. You don't have to have full coverage if nothing is owed on it.
3. You need to have insurance on anything that you drive for your protection as well as for everyone else. To answer your question concerning the dealership named "shaver", I have seen a dealership in my hometown named "trusted autos", go figure.
4. If when you buy the car you set up financing, yes you do need to carry full coverage car insurance. If you took out a personal loan and then when and bought the car with it, in that case you would not have to carry insurance because it was a personal loan. The bank that borrowed you the money has no idea it is for a car because it could be for whatever you want. HOWEVER: I would not suggest buying a car and then driving it without car insurance. If you got in an accident, it could become very costly! Good luck.
