    Recalling Mass 10 Truck Stop – ‘The Dump’ – and its …
    [​IMG]
    Reader Chinatown, posting on thetruckersreport.com, suggested Mass 10 had other off-duty diversions besides Murphy’s lake house. “At night van loads of women wearing negligee would be dropped off in the parking lot.” In another post Chinatown wrote “they advertised that place on the ‘all night trucker radio stations’ and the radio hosts would chuckle because they knew what was going on there.”

    I was OTR for them for 5-6 years and only had one truck governed at 55. I remember a truckstop in Birmingham that would not let JB trucks in there cuz we were like rejects or something lol
