If you read the fine print, this Costco rebate is good at any Chevy dealer. Not just the ones in the Costco auto program. It works the same as any other manufacturer rebate. Costco auto program dealers are something else entirely, they essentially have some deal with Costco where they sell cars near invoice price (also I haven’t found a single dealer available for the Costco auto program in over 30 zip codes I searched all over the east coast). That is not the same as this rebate/incentive currently active.
this. It’s a rebate and other than having you to fill out a form and/or getting a copy of your Costco card/id#…the dealer isn’t out any money on this rebate…treated as if Costco is giving you $1k to put down in the purchase
