TULSA, OK (09.24.24) – Car Toys Tulsa hosted the 1st Annual Rides For Hope event at their location on Saturday, September 21st. Well over 80 bikes and vehicles were in the parking lot at the company’s Tulsa location.

Midday the area surrounding the Car Toys location was filled with cool rides and bikes.

Inside the store, people came inside to buy their raffle tickets and check out specials for the day. During the day many quotes and estimates for new purchases were made to consumers in the showroom.

Rockford Fosgate had a major presence at the event.

The event happened from 9 AM to 4 PM and the Brothers Just Wingin’ It food truck was on site. Staff members Chance, Bill, Matt, Gabe, Frank and Mark worked the event along with owner Lisa Stewart. A post event dinner at Lucky’s capped the very full day.

A local friend, Damon’s Droneography, also was overhead with his drone taking amazing images and footage. Events of this type provide a way for 12volt retailers to connect with members of the community, sponsor local causes and drive long term business.

“In today’s market, many people are keeping their cars longer and there are so many aftermarket upgrades available. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto interfaces can easily add smartphone functionality and enjoyment as drivers are on the road. Also dash cams add so many safety features and document accidents that could happen on the road” Adams concluded.
