Casscorridor there is one in Midtown at the 3rd street saloon in the parking lot in that canopy type area they have. It's really good, but I wonder if the bar allows you to drink in their canopy now?? Oh well that taco truck is really good though.

"Does anyone know where I can find a Taco truck? Do they run downtown or stay mainly in Mexican town? "
There's usually one on Central just north of John Kronk and it always has lots of people around it so it must be decent.
I suppose....or it more likely is that I am just discovering that there are Taco Trucks around here. I had never heard of one until I was in L.A. last year
or it could be like
white man "discovered" new world = white girl "discovers" Taco Truck
In terms of the restaurant industry, where conventional wisdom dictated the market was fully saturated, this is a powerful emerging concept to be reckoned with. The success of Kogi and other entrepreneurs has capped a decades-long evolution of the "taco truck" [[LA's cultural equivalent to the NYC sidewalk vendor) into a wide variety of cuisines.
In some areas of Los Angeles, like the Miracle Mile district along Wilshire, these roving restaurateurs are stealing up to 25-35% of the tony brick-and-mortar watering holes' lunch clientele. It is such a threat; traditional restaurants are currently lobbying the city council to have them banned from parking within a designated distance of an existing building-front restaurant.
Born out of a combination of the potpourri of Los Angeles' Latino, Asian, and Middle-Eastern ethnic communities, technology [[Twitter, texting, Facebook), and the economy [[reasonable prices rule), suddenly every pretentious "celebrity" chef in the city is scrambling to set up their own version as the tables at their expensive venues lie vacant during the Great Recession.
The interesting twist in this incarnation of the restaurant is that it is all about good food at a good price. There is no "atmosphere", no entertainment, and no attractive wait staff to justify a pricey menu, so it will be interesting to see who succeeds and who fails.

McGraw and Proctor across from the Sunoco gas station as well as McGraw just east of Martin on the south side.
Yelp has a pretty good list:

that doesnt sound very safe to eat.
I'm pretty sure there are more than 2 taco trucks on Vernor. I see a string of them every summer evening.
The one at 3rd Street Saloon is pretty good. They do allow drinks on the patio but not sure if they take orders out there. You may have to go inside to order.
