    A cat scale is just a certification standard.

    With a regular, on time, qualified update on accuracy and certification. The truck stop only leases the CAT scale, doesn't own it!

    CAT scale is a brand, just like Ford or Chevy. The CAT company does have their own standards, as do most states for scales, and even some counties.

    Cat scale has purchased J-scale. I saw this when I went in a flying J the other day. This is probably because Pilote have bought all the flying j truck stops..

    Ok. I thought the Cat Scales were own by the same people who own Iowa 80. I do know the original owner of Iowa 80 started Cat Scales,but don't know if he or his family sold it to anyone.
