Potential Fort Worth Food Truck Operator Gives Up His Dream

This photoshopped idea for a food truck will not roll in Fort Worth.

Sad news from Fort Worth—sounds like entrepreneurs trying to get food trucks on the road in Cowtown are having the same problems as those in Dallas. This report from one such visionary, Henry Hester:

We’ve decided to walk away from the Fort Worth food truck idea.  The city regulations and zoning were too much to bare, along with an odd city layout with no strong hipster movement to be found.

I would love to encourage Henry to fight on, but it would just cost him more money and heartache. But we’re not giving up. Come on Dallas City Hall, let’s get this food truck show on the road.
