It was just done to give Syntax something to stalk on the internet. Nothing more. Matt and his cronies have a place they meet up at and devise ways to basically fuck with Stytax. And naturally Syntax falls for them every time. This has been going on for years and years.

Are there true myths?
Also i did some research and you're right, it turns out that the median lifespan of a restaurant startup with 5 or fewer employees is 3.75 years. Wow! A food truck peddling overpriced food to broke-ass students on a university campus will, I'm sure, not make it that long. Of course, your own website makes it clear that this food truck isn't even in operation so we can't really start the timer yet.

Both GOUL and Miller Guide allowed Matt to Rip OFF Many a MC member for their Allowance money,
This ripping off of children is Matts way of filling his wallet because he failed to get a proper education - RedNeck Wise he is doing what RedNecks Due

So I guess working in a food truck is a low end job. Maybe my friend won't want to do that sort of work for very long.
It's basically the same as working at McDonalds but in a truck, right?

Potentially profitable but still considered low end work, yes. Again, it's the same work as any McDonald's employee would be able to carry out. Fry cook, cashier, janitor etc. I guess the biggest win is that you don't have to clean a toilet for customers.

The average restaurant makes about 5% profit. Let's double that and say food trucks make 10% profit. Let's say this food truck sells $10 meals. Let's say this food truck operates 12 hours per day. Let's say it takes 2 minutes to prepare and serve one order. This is all extremely generous. Under those very favorable conditions, making $1 profit per meal, you'd sell 360 meals and make $360. Not a bad gig, all things considered. You'd have to sell 3000 (10x more!!!) meals per day to make the claimed amount in pure profit (not just gross revenue). You can futz around with the numbers all you like. Maybe the meals sell for $15 and you make $3 per sale. Maybe you operate 14 hours per day. Maybe each order takes 1 minute to fill. There still is no plausible way to make the numbers add up to multiple thousands per day. If you owned 10 food trucks, maybe you'd make that much in profit or something. I dunno.

Please provide a source for that. Even at 25% profit margins (I can think of relatively few industries that hit that mark) selling 60 $10 meals per hour for 14 hours per day, you barely crack $2000 per day. That's almost certainly off by a factor of about 10. It probably takes no less than 5 minutes to fulfill an individual order on average. You probably make about $1-$1.50 profit per meal if you're good at your job. Assuming you do both lunch (11-2) and dinner (5-8) rounds during weekdays, you're probably doing more like 7-8 hours of selling. You can probably go later on Fridays and Saturdays but that doesn't bump up the total profit into multiple thousands of dollars per month.
I like food trucks. If I lived near you I'd visit yours once a week. I just don't like this weird millionaire schtick but I guess I'm the dumb one for doing the math!

You seem to be ignoring the fact that food trucks usually only have one person working in them. Some of the more popular ones may have two, but you have to have money to pay a coworker before you hire any.

Yes. It is very uncommon for food trucks to be constantly at capacity though. There are peak hours and slow times. Every place is slightly different but you're probably doing most of your sales from 12:00-1:30 and almost nothing by 2:00 or 2:15. If you have been around for a long time and have a great reputation, community respect, etc. maybe you can stretch those hours out a bit more but like, you can't hit the annual million dollar mark. I could even see flirting with $100k salary if you are the absolute best food truck in the area but $1 million just ain't happening.

Every place is slightly different but you're probably doing most of your sales from 12:00-1:30 and almost nothing by 2:00 or 2:15. If you have been around for a long time and have a great reputation, community respect, etc. maybe you can stretch those hours out a bit more but like, you can't hit the annual million dollar mark. I could even see flirting with $100k salary if you are the absolute best food truck in the area but $1 million just ain't happening.

> The average restaurant makes about 5% profit. Let's double that and say food trucks make 10% profit.
Only double? Food trucks don't have 10% of the overhead other 'Restaurants' do.
BTW and average Mcdonalds electric bill is about 45,000 a year.

I offer the same evidence that you offered that food trucks make millions of dollars in gross income and have a 23% profit margin.
Also, 1:15 AM.

> The average restaurant makes about 5% profit. Let's double that and say food trucks make 10% profit. Let's say this food truck sells $10 meals. Let's say this food truck operates 12 hours per day. Let's say it takes 2 minutes to prepare and serve one order. This is all extremely generous. Under those very favorable conditions, making $1 profit per meal, you'd sell 360 meals and make $360. Not a bad gig, all things considered. You'd have to sell 3000 (10x more!!!) meals per day to make the claimed amount in pure profit (not just gross revenue). You can futz around with the numbers all you like. Maybe the meals sell for $15 and you make $3 per sale. Maybe you operate 14 hours per day. Maybe each order takes 1 minute to fill. There still is no plausible way to make the numbers add up to multiple thousands per day. If you owned 10 food trucks, maybe you'd make that much in profit or something. I dunno.
Seems to me and this is AFTER I did a Reply to Fake Anon in a PM
Fake Anon you are Doxxing Indy with all that quality Math
Just pointing OUT another Conundrum.
And thank you very much for the math and that Doxxing. Remember expressing YOUR Opinion Counts, where as Others Don't

I wonder how the overhead compares to a restaurant. A clapped out old delivery van with a big hole cut in the side seems a lot cheaper than a "real" restaurant building. But then you have to supply your own electricity and natural gas with a generator and bottled propane, which is a lot more expensive than regular utilities. I wonder how the rent works for food trucks. Like do they just park in parking lots and set up shop for free or do they have to pay $X per hour to whoever owns the parking lot to operate? ?
