$3k dealer discount is pretty weak. Minimum $4k-$5k off for a good deal on a Blazer. $1500 is also not much in terms of incentives but if that’s all you qualify for then it is what it is.
Would recommend digging into whether or not your/your spouse’s employer qualifies for GM supplier.
Would also recommend looking into Equinox EVs if you aren’t 100% set on the Blazer EV. There is a $1,750 rebate standard on all Equinox EV LTs and no such equivalent for Blazers (unless one just came out and I’m missing that info)

Honestly this deal is pretty bad. Here is the link to my signed post for my own Blazer EV.
At the minimum that $1490 in accessories has got to go. I guess for the rest if you only qualify for $1,000 in rebates then it is what it is. But at these prices I’d go ZDX before considering Blazer
My response to OP was a deal check he was asking for on a MY 24 (the topic was merged into this one). Incentives other than Costco remain the same and SoCal deals and NorCal deals are easily cross shopped.
I am not saying that OP should try to replicate my deal 1:1, but rather giving them a helpful starting point for how to shape their own deal, especially when fewer datapoints are available early within a month.
Totally agree. NorCal is consistently more expensive than SoCal (specifically OC/LA - SD deals are also typically not as good) from my experience. I always recommend friends from NorCal to fly down for their cars and then drive home.
Yeah everything still comes down to supply and demand at the end of the day. LA - especially the valley - is one of the highest volume areas in the state. That sort of volume just gives them the ability to be more competitive on pricing. I’m sure this also trickles over to neighboring OC (as long as you don’t get too far from the 5 or 405 and go to a Long Beach dealer or something). SD and NorCal are generally lower volume (and especially the Bay Area has notably more money flying around) all contributing to higher prices there.
So the dealer took off the $1420 accessory, thanks for the suggestion. I only qualify for the GM Supplier discount. (1k discount for Blazer EV) What is considered a good/reasonable MF, as they did not disclose…thanks for any info
