How did I do (considering no more federal EV credit)
2026 Chevrolet Equinox EV LT1

Dealer Service Fee: $949.00
Title/License/Registration Fees: $18.00

I wasn’t able to get the dealer add-ons removed BUT overall the dealership was great, all done remotely and in-and-out within 30 minutes!! DM me for contact info (Atlanta area).
Dealer junk, I guess a warranty thing. Couldn’t remove it. So I guess I left a few bucks on the table.
I’m curious on the 5600 (rebates vs dealer discount breakdown)
I wonder if they used an additional 1500 in Flex Cash.
MF is marked up slightly.
I tried to put in the calc.
Doesn’t quite match up.
I may have made a mistake then. Or there might be more incentives that I didnt factor in. What I know for sure is the $298/mo x 24 month, 12k per year and $1000 due at signing. Rest is a bit fuzzy because we had so many incentives stacked. Lease Cash, GM EV Supplier, Costco, Conquest, GM Credit Card (my $1000 DAS went on the new Credit Card to get another incentive).
Easily to Replicate in SoCal
Even though in SoCal, they tax rebates
Which makes it totally different proposition
But a great deal considering what’s in the market right now!
It’s one thing to talk about getting a deal, another to actually find it and negotiate it
Props! It’s a great car and I am sure you will love it!
