This photo slid into our DMs with little more than: “Hey, I have an old photo of one of your trucks.”
And sure enough, it does look like one of ours. The colours are right, the stripes are right, but somewhere along the way, the name on the door disappeared.
Our guess is that this truck was sold after putting in years of dependable service, which is a natural part of fleet rotation in the trucking industry.
But what stands out most is that someone saw the value still left in her and gave her a second life on the road.
That’s something we take pride in at Skelton Truck Lines. Strong maintenance programs, proper care, and attention to equipment don’t just keep freight moving safely; they help extend the working life of a truck long after it leaves our fleet.
For many owner-operators and small businesses, trucks like this become an opportunity to build something of their own. We have to say, there’s something special about seeing a piece of our trucking history still out there doing what it was built to do.
If anyone has information about this truck or remembers this photo, we’d love to hear the story behind it.

June is recognized across Canada as Commercial Vehicle Safety Awareness Month, an important reminder that safety on our highways starts long before the wheels begin turning.
From proactive maintenance to responsible driving habits, every detail matters when it comes to keeping drivers, fleets, and the motoring public safe. Here are a few important reminders for drivers and carriers during inspection season and beyond:

1 - Complete thorough pre-trip inspections
Check all lights, tires, brakes, fluid levels, and ensure cargo is properly secured before every trip. Preventative checks help avoid costly downtime and improve highway safety.
2 - Stay compliant and organized
Keep logbooks updated, permits accessible, and review carrier safety profiles regularly to ensure everything is current and inspection-ready.
3 - Prioritize driver wellness
Fatigue management is critical. Taking proper rest breaks, minimizing distractions, and staying alert behind the wheel helps everyone get home safely.
4 - Adjust for changing conditions
Weather and road conditions can change quickly. Slowing down during rain, fog, or heavy traffic helps maintain control and reduce risk.
At Skelton Truck Lines, safety is more than a requirement; it’s a responsibility we carry every mile.

Because at the end of the day, our message is simple:
Love is Love. 🧡

We often share photos captured by our drivers as they travel across the continent, offering a glimpse into places many of us may never see.

But this time, Slava reminds us that sometimes the best views are closer to home. This great shot from beautiful Port Perry, just 30 minutes from our main terminal, is proof that you don’t have to go far to find something worth capturing.
Thanks Slava for the great shot!

Behind every delivery is a purpose and at Skelton Truck Lines, that purpose often means transporting life-saving healthcare products to the people who depend on them.
On this “Thank a Trucker” day, we recognize the professionalism, care, and responsibility it takes to do this job right. Our drivers aren’t just moving freight, they’re helping ensure critical supplies arrive safely, on time, and without compromise.
It’s a role that demands focus, pride, and a deep understanding of what’s at stake. And it’s one our team carries out every day with quiet dedication.
To our Skelton drivers, and to drivers across the industry, thank you for the work you do and the difference you make on every mile.
