Can't wait to see your final build, probably be just as good as the rolling burrito trailer. Keep on coming with those economical ideas.

Just to be clear - I have done my own research on MY county in MY state (Polk, FL) and I urge everyone else to do the same. I’ve received a lot of messages recently and just to reiterate - I am NOT conveying professional advice - I am simply documenting my own build for what meets standards in my own state and county. Thank you all and god bless

Men I’m glad I find you !! Do you know if we can use FRP on the three compartments sinks to cover all wood structures??? If don’t know please advise me how I can find out . I’m in the same boat as you . Thanks

Thank you for the great feedback! At least in my county in FL, yes we can use FRP against the walls behind the plumbing (my local authorities informed me that I am not required to insulate). Check with the DPBR and your counties fire department they’ll give great info!

New sub Canada. We are doing the food vendor thingy this summer. Our first year and starting with a tent along side our camper. Our planned events are mainly out in the country, thus a tent. We want to see how we do this year and if all goes well planning to do the food trailer but hoping to find one that already has electrical...is your events mostly electrical hookups? I don't see anything in regards to hookup for a generator which we will have to use for the majority of the events. Looking forward to see your finished project and hopefully videos of your days as a food vendor....so far so good. You are providing a lot of good information here...good luck...

That’s awesome! Welcome to the channel! I would love to be able to follow your journey if you have social media?? We will be using a generator for our business once operational (I will post a video once I purchase the generator to show my setup). However most of my cooking equipment will be powered using propane. Thank you so much for the support 🙏🏻 and I’ll definitely post more videos once we are up and running! Thanks again and god bless

What is installed first the electrical lines or the FRP panels ?!

Appreciate your video. Can you please let me how this wall surface has stood the test of time? I did some research and found out that it's not meant for use in areas with great fluctuations in temperature (per the manufacturers website), especially high heat. I've heard that it will separate from the plywood and you have to pull it all out and start over. You're in Florida, so I'd love to know how this has worked for you now that you've had it awhile. I purchased the product but I'm having 2nd thoughts now as I don't want to install an expensive and potential disaster. Thanks.

Great question! So far it has held up great! We will however be installing some stainless steel backsplash just to withstand the extra heat behind the cooking surfaces. Aesthetically it looks awesome thank you so much for your support!

Congrats great work and thanks for sharing your video. I have a question, do you know where I can buy white aluminum or stainless steel sheets for the outside of the trailer? Thanks, Deb fr: Texas

Thank you so much for the support! In terms of national big-chain stores, I’ve struggled to find either of those materials. Best advice I can give you is to search Facebook marketplace and see if you have any locals who may be selling! Wishing you all the best!

where are you in Florida. I am about to start building my food truck and would love to pick your brain. Also, if you are local and still doing the food truck thing, Id love to come support! I am in the Tampa area.

Stupid question, can you install white aluminum with unpainted side facing out? Reason I'm asking is the trailer I recently bought already has some aluminum trim and corner pieces that are installed that way . Was thinking about installing the painted panels the same way along the whole back wall so it matches. Thanks for posting these videos.
@poormansfoodtruck2 жыл бұрын
That is actually a great question! Honestly I’m not sure - I would assume that the other side being completely untreated might not hold up as well as stainless, but it definitely wouldn’t hurt to ask your local heath department! P.S let me know what they say!

Never bothered asking, found a good deal on some stainless steel panels and going that route. $300 to cover the 7x14 back wall of my trailer.

@@poormansfoodtruck I live in Ohio and deal with a lot of Amish. Recently had some metal roofing and stovepipe done and got to talking and sure enough he had some 4x10 sheets of 304 brushed stainless steel laying around. Was shocked with the price. They have great prices on everything to be honest, labor too.

Hope you are doing well men , I’m wondering if having look into the hood and fire supresión sistem, Do you know someone who can do it cheaper?
@poormansfoodtruck2 жыл бұрын
Yes sir! I actually have my system sat inside the trailer right now (getting ready to install soon). I bought my hood from Vevor.com (roughly $800) and my upblast fan from ventilation direct (roughly $550). All fire Surpression systems must be installed by licensed professionals, and costs around $3k unfortunately

Canadian here from Ontario.. can we use FRP as a counter
@poormansfoodtruck2 жыл бұрын
That’s a great question! Im actually not sure to be honest, the only thing I would worry about in that scenario would be cutting straight through it when doing any kind of prep work? Of course it would depend on what food your working with, but I would imagine cutting meat or vegetables on FRP wouldn’t hold up so well versus stainless steel countertops? But again, I’m not 100% sure on that one
