    I am looking for any info, good or bad, on Scottlynn out of Ontario. What have you all heard about them. I know they run out West and I think down the coast then back to the East. I've never really heard anything from anyone about them or had a chance to talk to any of the drivers. They do run nice equipment, although that means jack diddly when it comes to drivers being able to survive.

    So let's hear what the good and bad news is.

    I saw those, too bad none of them really say anything about the company. Most seem to be complaining about the lease purchase that is available. I want to know more from anyone driving there about the company. Not so much what, a friend of a friend of a guy I once met has to say.

    My father drives for Scotlyn and is overall satisfied. He also has drivers on trucks he owns and has placed them in Scotlyn. They do reefer runs out west to California and other places. He has worked for a few companies in his time, everythings good while it lasts.


    No place is perfect and half of the experience will depend on yourself and how you interact with the staff and dispatchers. If you are a likeable person, you'll get treated fair.

    I can only say that the owner cut his teeth at Bruce R Smith and basically was shown the door for let's just say unfavorable conduct. The son is more or less a product of his environment. Never trust a boss who's own personal vehicle is worth more than the truck you're going to operate...and that vehicle happens to be leased.
