So far the incentive looks like this. The program starts March 16th. The invoice of the vehicle has to have a date before Oct. 17th. Those vehicles qualify for a extra $500 for cars and $1000 for trucks. Example, those of us in the north east will have $1000 regular rebate, the $2000 purchase bonus cash(good until Apr. 4th), and old invoice money(if qualifies). Also, these vehicles are all going to be invoiced before Jan. 11th. This was the cut off date for the new pricing. All of thes vehicles will have the old window stickers and on a trailblazer that qualifies for $1680. Total rebate of $5680 on a 2006 model year invoiced before Oct 17th. All 2005 models will also qualify for the old invoice money. This money is also good on a lease. However in my particular area we loose $1000 lease cash on March 15th from a different program called East of the lake. In my particular area the leases will not change. This is what I know as of now.

Do you know if this can be used in conjunction with GMS pricing?
If the vehicle falls outside of the October 17th window, does it qualify for any discounts besides the current $1K rebate?

Yes it can

You would just loose the $1000 old invoice bonus
>is this also the discount for california?
Yes
You will see some advertising that the old invoice date pertains to all vehicles invoiced before November 16th. Dealers were able to contribute to a direct mail program. If they contributed, they got a extra month added to the program. From what I hear the program was real expensive and many dealers did not participate. So, most dealers will have a old invoice date of October 16th.

Looks like I may have to check this out friday. Need to find a good lease (GMS) on a TB or G6 for the fiancee.

Thanks for the info... for some reason, the dealers that I emailed seem to be clueless to the program.
Does this include the SS?

The regular rebate($1000) and bonus cash($2000) do not apply. The $1680 old window sticker price write down and the new $1000 old invoice rebate do apply. However, you are going to be hard pressed to find a dealer that has a SS Trailblazer in inventory that is that old.

WOW, This makes the SS an apx $8,200.00 option. The normal 5,200 plus the 3K you loose in rebates!
