$24 for tacos from a truck is wild.
At that price, I’m not thinking “quick street food” anymore - I’m comparing it to an actual restaurant.
Yes, owners have higher costs. Everyone does.
But customers feel those higher costs too.
Food trucks built their appeal on being casual, fast and affordable. If the price keeps climbing while the experience stays the same, people are going to notice.
Would you pay $20–$25 for food truck tacos?
