The naysayers said it could not be replicated, but I hereby announce that it is time for EQS Part 2, Electric Boogaloo:

When I woke up on the last day of February, I did not expect to go to sleep that same night with an EQS in my driveway, but here we are. Compared to @HersheySweet’s legendary deal, my car has a higher MSRP, but also benefits from an even greater discount. Unfortunately, dealerships in New York are unable to apply MSDs―otherwise, my monthly payment would have been approximately $450 per month. Regardless, I am elated with the numbers that I did manage to achieve, and want to thank @HersheySweet and @Sammy1184 for all of the help in making this dream a reality.
Brace yourselves for the next chapter in the EQS story: the improvement to programs in March means that we will not be leaving you with a cliffhanger!
