I never went to an LA taco truck that had a website. That's sort of doing it wrong.

I think twitter's a big must for street trucks.
http://www.seriouseats.com/2009/05/a-li ... itter.html

If you get a following (and here in Durham and Carrboro, the trucks have a following), people want to know where you are when they're hungry. Of course, driving a couple miles across Durham for OnlyBurger is a lot different than driving around LA.

I was referring to the fact that an authentic LA taco truck is usually a run-down trailer with people who don't speak english and probably don't know what Twitter is. But maybe I'm wrong about that.

I just got back from a food truck round up in Carrboro. Six trucks parked at a closed garage. We had a crab cake sandwich, chips, a quesadilla, a lemon/strawberry crepe, and shreck shaped ice cream. #winning
