Dareck Makowski - Golf Cars Etc / Customer Appreciation Event 01/30/2026 (Aired 01/26/2026)

Andy Taylor speaks with Dareck Makowski, owner of Golf Cars of Arizona, about an upcoming Customer Appreciation Event happening this Friday 01/30/2026 in Green Valley. Derek explains that the event is part celebration, part reintroduction—highlighting recent improvements at the Green Valley location, including a new store manager, upgraded service focus, and the addition of a top-tier mechanic dedicated to the area.The event runs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. (or until tacos run out!) and features free tacos from a local food truck, giveaways, and the opportunity to test-drive several golf cart models on site. Dareck also shares how golf carts in Green Valley are used far beyond the golf course, noting that a large percentage of customers don’t golf at all and instead rely on carts for everyday transportation around the community.A major highlight of the event is an exciting giveaway with Folds of Honor, featuring a lifted Advanced EV golf cart giveaway. Attendees can enter to win by stopping by the event, with the cart ultimately benefiting Folds of Honor fundraising efforts later in the year. Dareck even hints at a possible cash option for the winner—though he admits he may want the cart for himself.The conversation also dives into customization options, new golf cart technology, lithium battery conversions, and the wide range of brands available at Golf Cars of Arizona—including Club Car, Star EV, Epic, and Advanced EV. Dareck emphasizes improved service, expert repairs, and long-term battery solutions as key reasons customers continue to trust the company.Listeners are invited to stop by 251 Calle de Los Tiendas in Green Valley, just south of Duval Mine Road, for food, fun, and a firsthand look at what’s new at Golf Cars of Arizona during this Friday’s Customer Appreciation Event. 11am to 2pm!
