This is tremendous! I have been in the truck catering business for over 20 years, custum making trucks from the different ideas my customers bring me with the ambition to start their own business. Trucks are easier to start off with rather than a restaurant because there cheaper and easier to populate. As STREETZAPIZZA commented there definitely is “enough room in the road for all” as long as you put a little creativity, fine food, and a clean atmosphere that proves a food truck to be anything but a “roach coach”. I am beyond excited what this truck craze boom has to bring to the food industry, my business, and the job opportunities that it will bring to others.
Have you seen Cart for a Cause on the streets? This truck goes out every Tuesday with a differenct Top Chef from Los Angeles on Board. It helps to raise money for St. Vincent Meals on Wheels.
There is room on the road for all of us. Food trucks have allowed many chefs to share their passion for food with people. Allowed people to expand their palettes. I would be happy to have a Pizza Hut or Dominos truck park next to our Streetza Truck. Trucks level the playing field. Which means the best food wins. So, everyone wins. - Scott Baitinger - Partner - Streetza Pizza
It doesn't mention about when these trucks are driving through a neighborhood near you. Is there a way of finding out their daily schedule? Twitter, perhaps?
This is great. Roving foods, its not just burritos anymore. I wish they move rapidly to expand to all the cities. Never-mind the IDIOT, THEBIGCHEESE's comment. The gourmet food truck like the KOGI, Nobbi, etc, will generate the much needed income to more cities. And as for the third comment, look around you, I bet even your underwear is made in the 3rd world. It's the third world that's makes our lives easy. While the, first, world enjoy their labor.
Since the L.A. city council and mayor are so weak kneed to pass an ordinance to protect existing restaurants "territory", let's hope those those business owners rally to put an end to the gypsy food trucks. This city looks like a"Third World Country" and that is not a compliment.
It is a shame that we have such weak and ineffective representatives in Los Angeles.

Great idea. If you can't beat the food trucks, join 'em.

don't forget: In-N-Out has had a burger truck (no fries, just chips) for more than a decade!
