As a native Montanan, I grew up in Cooke City before moving to Billings and later settling in Bigfork. With my father’s 55-year career in the automotive industry, cars are in my blood. In 2009, I returned to the Flathead Valley to marry my wife, and we tied the knot in 2010. Together, we’re raising our two boys in this remarkable region, where we enjoy Flathead Lake in the summer, ski the mountains in the winter, and hunt and hike during the shoulder seasons. The valley’s beauty and lifestyle make it the perfect place to raise a family, which is why we’ve chosen to stay.
In 2014, my wife and I opened 406 Motors in Kalispell, recognizing the need for a premium pre-owned dealership. With my extensive experience managing new car dealerships, I’ve honed the ability to source top-quality vehicles at competitive prices. Since opening, 406 Motors has prioritized delivering the best pre-owned vehicles while keeping our customers at the heart of everything we do. I’m grateful for the blessings in my life and invite you to visit us at 406 Motors!
Originally from the UK, I moved to the United States at 16 and am now a proud American citizen. I have been in the car business since 2010 and started as a sales consultant when the dealership opened in 2014. My passion for cars began in childhood, making vehicle sales and dealership ownership a lifelong dream—and I can confidently say I love my job. Today, as part of the management team, I oversee operations ranging from vehicle reconditioning and detailing to deal-making and after-sales care.
In my spare time, I cherish moments with my family, embracing Montana’s lifestyle through hunting, skiing, fishing, enjoying the lakes, and playing in local soccer leagues. I’ve stayed with 406 Motors because I deeply respect Elijah’s values and the dealership’s commitment to integrity. Unlike many dealers focused solely on sales, 406 Motors prioritizes customer care and lasting relationships, which I’m proud to uphold every day.
Born and raised in Alaska, I relocated to Montana in 2011 and now reside in Bigfork with my two sons, Jack and Matt, and my Husband. I’m passionate about the Flathead Valley, embracing every season through activities like skiing, fishing, hiking, boating, and hunting. My family and I thrive on an active outdoor lifestyle. I began my career in the automotive industry at Kalispell Hyundai in 2011 and joined the team in 2017, drawn by their outstanding reputation. If you’re seeking a quality vehicle and a relaxed, low-pressure buying experience, visit me at the dealership!
Hi, I’m Jon. A proud Montana native, I was born and raised in Eastern Montana and moved to the Flathead Valley in 2020. At 26, I’m excited to call Kalispell home and be part of the 406 Motors team.
I’m happily married to my wife Shayenn, and we love exploring the outdoors together—whether it’s hiking, camping, or simply enjoying everything Northwest Montana has to offer. When I’m not helping customers find their next vehicle, you’ll likely find me training and competing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The discipline, resilience, and focus I’ve developed on the mats carry over directly into how I approach my work: staying committed, putting in the effort, and always aiming to improve.
At 406 Motors, I’m passionate about connecting people with reliable used vehicles that fit their lifestyle and budget. As a local who understands Montana life—whether you need something for daily commutes around Kalispell, family adventures, or rugged backroad trips—I’m here to make the car-buying process straightforward, honest, and stress-free.
Stop by 406 Motors and say hello. I look forward to earning your trust and helping you drive away happy.
Originally from Northern Colorado, my family and I were blessed with the opportunity to recently relocate to the Flathead Valley and begin a new chapter in one of the most beautiful places in the country. The mountains, outdoors, and strong sense of community made Montana feel like home almost immediately.
My passion for the automotive industry started early, working alongside my parents in the antique and classic car business. Growing up around collector vehicles taught me the importance of integrity, relationships, and truly understanding what makes a vehicle special. At just 13 years old, I sold my first car — a 1962 Cadillac Convertible — and I’ve been hooked on the car business ever since.
Now at 50 years old, I’m still fortunate to be doing what I love and genuinely enjoy helping customers find the right vehicle for their lifestyle, needs, and budget. Whether it’s a dependable daily driver, a family SUV, or a fun weekend vehicle, I believe the buying experience should feel relaxed, honest, and enjoyable.
My wife Lindsey and I have been happily married since 2007, and together we’re raising our four boys while building our life here in Montana. Outside of work, we enjoy spending time outdoors as a family and working on our small hobby farm. We’re excited to continue planting roots in the Flathead Valley and becoming part of this incredible community.
At 406 Motors, I’m committed to treating customers the way I’d want my own family treated — with honesty, respect, and a low-pressure approach. I look forward to helping you find the perfect fit and making your next vehicle purchase a great experience.
