Infiniti of Scottsdale Employee of the Month
Dennis Lowry is known as "The Grey Fox" at IOS
You’ve never met a nicer, more energetic and hard-working luxury car salesman than Dennis Lowry. And a lot of you have met him. Since 1999, when he started with Infiniti of Scottsdale, Dennis has sold more vehicles than any other salesperson. Tireless, you’ll see him running occasionally when he’s helping his customers. Sounds like a kid, huh?
Some kid! Dennis is in his mid-70’s. Yet, he runs circles around the garden variety car salesmen that you’ll find in most other places. He fits right in here.
Dennis grew up in the midwest and joined the United States Air Force in 1956. He served Uncle Sam for 11 years before retiring with the rank of Captain in 1967. During these years, Dennis flew a variety of jet airplanes, including the F86, F100, B47 and the big bomber, the B52.
Following his service to our country, Dennis signed on with Pan Am Airlines and piloted the biggest and best Pan Am had during his 25 years with them, including the venerable Boeing 707 and the Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet. Although Dennis was not involved with the tragedy that occurred over Lockerbie, Scotland, that crash set up circumstances that brought his airline career to an end. Pan Am’s business suffered terrifically after that horrific incident, and the airline furloughed lots of people.
Dennis is married to his pretty wife Nancy, and they are a devoted couple. He has four grown and successful children ranging in age from 28 to 56. In his spare time, you might find Dennis wearing waders in a remote trout stream – fly fishing is one of his favorite pastimes. On occasion, when he doesn’t have the time to get out into the wilderness, Dennis has been sighted in a particular valley casino sitting at the Blackjack and Poker tables.
This is a salt-of-the-earth, stand-up guy, and you won’t do better than to have Dennis Lowry help you with your next car purchase. Call 480-240-3527 and ask for him, or email Dennis dlowry@infinitiofscottsdale.com.
Infiniti of Scottsdale Recognizes James Bakalar
Outstanding employee makes the dealership a better place
James Bakalar joined the New Car Sales Team at Infiniti of Scottsdale in the Spring of 2007. He has been very busy ever since, and James will tell you – he’s found a happy home here. He had been with a Phoenix BMW dealer and he had come to appreciate finer luxury performance vehicles. But he wanted a work environment that was friendlier, provided more support and gave more care and training to its sales employees. That’s exactly what he found here at Infiniti of Scottsdale. As a bonus, he found a fun place to work, a place where he can make a good living and a place which James makes better just by being here. After living in Ohio for all of his 33 years, James made the move, like many of have, to the sunny Southwest. He had entered the automobile business in 1999, working for BMW, Nissan and Chrysler. Before that James had been in the landscaping business. As a youth, James was a terrific athlete playing football, basketball and running track.
Since moving to the Phoenix/Scottsdale area, James has “rediscovered” the rewards of strenuous physical activity. Recently, he ran his first 26.2 mile race, competing in the P.F. Changs’ Rock’n’Roll Marathon, finishing in a very respectable sub-4-hour time. James reports that he enjoyed the experience, wants to run faster and is thinking about running another marathon in June in San Diego. Just about every morning, you will find James on the trail, trekking up the side of Camelback Mountain. When he can get away, he hikes the Grand Canyon and knows the Bright Angel Trail very well.

No stranger to Scottsdale’s night life, James and his 23 year old English girlfriend, Carina, will often be found in Old Town's better restaurants and bistros. He has come to love the social life available here in warm and friendly Arizona. Needless to say, James is making a very nice life for himself since leaving the rigors of cold Ohio.
As a Certified Infiniti Sales Consultant, James is a classy, sensitive and hard-working man, who will give the extra effort to help his clients get the maximum satisfaction from their car and ease them through a stress-free car buying experience. When the time is right for you, call James at 480-240-3527 or email him at jbakalar@infinitiofscottsdale.com and set up a time to see and drive the Infiniti of your choice. You’ll be glad you did.

Infiniti of Scottsdale's Spotlight On Ross Anderson
Hats off to this seasoned Infiniti professional
Every car dealership has (and definitely needs!) their “go-to guy”. When it comes to the great Infiniti products of today and through the years, Ross is our guy. He has a wealth of knowledge of Infiniti, and of our Dealership. Ross joined Infiniti of Scottsdale in 1994, and except for a brief time (when he lost his way and wandered over to Cadillac), he’s been a steadying part of the IoS Sales team ever since.
A native of Montana, Ross moved to Arizona as a child in 1958. A proud homeowner and pet lover, Ross lives with Buck, his 3 year-old Golden Retriever, and they enjoy our fantastic Arizona environment together. Ross leaves Buck at home though when heads out to the golf course – where he is as completely at home as he is behind the wheel of an Infiniti. Ross is pulling for the Rockies to beat the Red Sox in the World Series, and he’s an unembarrassed Cowboy’s fan.
When you’re shopping for a new car, and need to know that you’re going to get the straight story and the complete details, call 480-240-3527 and ask for Ross Anderson here at Infiniti at 6910 E. McDowell Road in Scottsdale. Or email Ross at randerson@infinitiofscottsdale.com.

Spotlight Is On The Salesperson of the Month
Kevin Mason earns top honors for his success at Infiniti of Scottsdale
Kevin has been an excellent salesman for Infiniti of Scottsdale from virtually the first day he started with us – in early 2006. After a full career with Peoples’ Energy in Chicago, Kevin moved here to the Valley with his family.
Always having been a man who loved fine clothing, Kevin spent a couple of years selling high quality men’s clothes. One of our sales managers, Amir Zodj, was a customer of his, and after a while the conversation turned to Infiniti. Kevin made the switch. We’re glad he did.
Kevin has won our Salesman of the Month Award several times. His success comes from his hard work, his knowledge of cars in general, and our great New Infiniti’s and Pre-Owned vehicles, in particular.
Kevin is a dedicated husband and father. He and wife Courtney have three children, Ryan, Dylan and Gabby. They travel as a family frequently. Just this year, the Mason’s vacationed for 10 days in South Florida and also spent a week back in Chicago at a big family reunion.
When you think of Infiniti of Scottsdale, remember to ask for Kevin Mason. You will find Kevin’s relaxed and friendly approach refreshing and his knowledge very helpful to you when you need a new car. You’ll be glad you did.
