Uncovering the Celina 52 Truck Stop

We were able to make this connection due to their latest posts being less AI-manipulated and having the photos taken inside and outside the actual convenience store. Truthfully, it was very simple.  The creative genius behind the page is very careful to remove identifying details in their shared images to make it appear genuine, however thanks to a single sticker in their window, a “DIESEL LIFE” sticker, we were able to find a list of authorized “DIESEL LIFE” distributors off of their website in Tennessee and from there quickly identified the true truck stop location by matching known identifiers based on their Facebook posts. It was really as simple as that.  An example of an easy identifier is the post from the lady forgetting to salute, this is where we located the sticker and it’s actually the side entrance to the convenience store.

From what we have been able to gather and identify, although older posts were heavily AI-generated, the more recent posts feature real people, including people who genuinely work as employees at Eco Travel Plaza.  What we do know is that the actors Blind Donny, Jan the Janitor, Nevaeh Petty and Colby Kappleman (as well as an unnamed “customer”) are members of the same family. We strongly believe Colby, Customer, Janitor, and Nevaeh to be siblings and Blind Donny is their father. However, that much cannot be confirmed as fact and is just educated speculation. This “educated speculation” is based on a primitive facial structure analysis. In the realm of genuine employees, based on extensive research into historical posts by the page, we believe the only named actors who are genuine employees are Colby, Belinda, and “Customer”. These four actors were commonly seen in the background before they were named and even in the earliest posts. The actor Nevaeh, may be an employee at the conne...

Who owns the real Celina 52 Truck Stop, now revealed as Eco Travel Plaza in Crossville, TN?  This was our second biggest question because we were curious if this is an individual family operation which the page leads us to believe or is it owned by a franchise, hedge fund, or investment firm? (Which is much less fun) Unfortunately, we have discovered that the real Celina 52 is owned by a Real Estate Holdings Company based out of Texas branded as “Khawar & Sons”. The property itself appears to be just recently sold to this firm during the past 2-5 years. Sadly this holding company presents itself as a foreign entity whose goal is to purchase family owned businesses. The truck stop was previously privately owned and operated by Mr. Don Demko. We are a private conglomerate of family-owned businesses that started with gas stations and convenience stores and have grown into a multi-million dollar entity.

 The Celina 52 Logo Interestingly enough, during our research we were able to find a familiar friend. The real truck stop convenience store, Eco Travel Plaza, retails a brand of pizza called Noble Roman’s Pizza that the most recent logo is “heavily inspired” by.
