Who are Brad Deery Motors’ 2026 Veterans & Vehicles honorees? This Veterans Day, Brad Deery Motors is proud to recognize two members of our sales team: Zach Broders and Garrett Evans, both selected as 2026 AutoSuccess Veterans & Vehicles honorees. We’re grateful for their service to our country and proud to see them recognized in the automotive industry. Having two honorees from the same dealership makes this recognition especially meaningful to our team and our community here in Maquoketa. What makes Zach Broders a valued member of our team? Zach is funny, hardworking, dependable, and easy to talk to. He has a way of helping customers and coworkers feel comfortable and looked after, whether he’s welcoming someone at the dealership or catching up with a teammate. Why do Zach’s customers ask for him by name? Customers notice the care Zach puts into his work. We regularly receive positive reviews that mention him by name, and many customers return to work with him or recommend him to friends and family. Zach takes time to listen, answer questions, and make the buying process enjoyable. He works to build a real relationship with each customer, not just help them choose a vehicle. How does Zach support veterans in the community? Zach makes a point of connecting with fellow veterans, including customers and coworkers. He’s volunteered to appear in dealership videos explaining discounts and programs available to current military members and veterans, and he’s always ready to help people learn what may be available to them. Veteran customers often ask for Zach specifically. Even when they’re working with another salesperson, he’ll stop by to say hello. Before long, they’re talking like old friends. That connection comes naturally to him, and it reflects how much he values the veteran community. Zach also gives his time to local kids through the Walleye Club, helping create fun experiences and lasting memories for young people. We’re proud of what he brings to our dealership and the community. What makes Garrett Evans a valued member of our team? Garrett is one of those people who can make just about anyone laugh. His humor and easygoing personality help customers feel comfortable, and he brings plenty of energy to the dealership each day. How does Garrett take care of his customers? Behind the jokes, Garrett works hard and cares about doing right by his customers. He takes time to answer questions, explain vehicles and options, and help people feel comfortable with their purchase without feeling pressured. He’s also a great teammate who’s always willing to jump in, lend a hand, or share what he knows. Customers remember Garrett, and coworkers enjoy having him around. We’re proud to have him on our team and believe he’s well deserving of this recognition. What is the AutoSuccess Veterans & Vehicles recognition?
