Yeah, for what that place is peddling, it's really splitting hairs if you think their fare is better than anyone else's.

One thing to have marketing get new consumers to go and try it out..

but once you get a customer to try something new, the food truck needs to be substance

Orlando's food truck scene has really taken off in the last year. The Daily City site has a good rundown of all the food truck gatherings and info on many of the trucks. http://www.thedailycity.com/p/top-ten-events-of-2010.html?m=1

food trucks increasing around central texas, but they don't seem to start up till 4pm, so lunch options are a lunch truck, which is really subpar because it is all long ago precooked food that is stored in a hotbox. No thanks.

Since 2006 the number of food trucks in the Austin area has gone from ~650 to well over 1200.

There are also a decent number in Houston, where the taco truck has been around for a long, long time.

There was an article today in Calgary Metro.. Food Truck trial has been largely positive.. and Calgary Council will be extending the Food Truck trail for another year..

Hello everyone. Zach here... I have a 2002 14ft Grumman Olson I am in the process of converting to a food truck. Los Angeles county requires to send in your plans before you start construction to be first approved. If anyone has had hands on experience with this plan approval process I would really appreciate any advice that might make the process go more smoothly. Also... I dont know what kind of generator to get and there's a plethora of choices? I know it has to be CARB compliant but thats about it. The quiet generators are what people suggest but are they better? I currently have 5,000 watts I am going to run in electricity on. I am looking at the Generac Quietpact 7,500. Onan is the best but way too expensive and do people really use those in food trucks and if not...what is the most popular generator found in Los Angeles food trucks? Also, I know most people use propane gas in LA and that the LA rules state the propane tanks can NOT be exposed...so where do people put the tanks? Also, the blue roof vents everyone has on the top...where do I get these from? Also, the ventilation required in California is different from other states...in California there's seemingly no roof mounted suction fans, they are all of the back but they seem to be comprised of just fans....where do I find this ventilation system? PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS WITH INFO I AM NOT SEEKING. I have a lot figured out already but theres just a few missing links so I really need specific answers...thank you so much

It's been for a while now, but a bunch of food trucks park on Main Street in Santa Monica on Tuesday nights.

I am going food truckin tonight as I will be out late, and they are open late

A lot of trucks use Twitter, Facebook, apps, and networks. In the SF Bay Area, you will find trucks banding together in networks.

The licensing of food trucks in many areas is stricter than restaurants for health code checks which IMO makes them safer for those worrying (in my area trucks get twice annual inspections, brick and mortar only get once).

I have been hitting up food trucks since high school (am 30 now) and have found that most have regular haunts and will post a weekly schedule that stays relatively the same from week to week.

Denver actually has quite a few food trucks. I have spoken to food bloggers who frequent them. I would encourage those interested in specific regions to also seek out food blogs that specialize in food trucks. I know of a few in most metro areas in the US.

My stomach is on fire from the habenero lime concoctions I just ate. Note, it was excellent, and stomach is on fire simply due to the spicy heat

Just what I wanted stomach and heart burn for a good nights sleep

Good luck tomorrow morning.

Most food truck business is done during lunch.. Is it more popular for supper because of the cultural gatherings, or just a preference of Texans in general?

While I may not represent everyone here in LA, I find that they're more popular at night here, too.

I have no idea but the mexican food trucks are open till 3am and some till 5am.

Maybe it is the 420 crowd......

There is one burger truck open, but I don't want that.

I had to wait in line at 1:30am for 3 tacos. There were 4 trucks(as in people not food trucks, everyone around here has a truck except me it seems) driving up as I left.
