Do you fancy yourself a successful food truck owner? Are you currently conquering the mobile kitchen industry, and quite possibly living large?

If so, then there are three questions you must answer, successful food truck owners, and said questions can be found below.

Before getting to the questions, though, always remember this: Just because you are successful now, that does not mean you will be successful forever. We are not trying to discourage you. That’s just the way life works — one minute you are on top, and the next minute … well, you aren’t.

Without further ado, here are three questions successful food truck chefs must answer.
