Chased a taco truck across town for 3 years and it finally paid off

Three years ago I stumbled on this beat up taco truck parked behind a gas station in Fresno. The al pastor was so good I literally pulled over and ate three tacos standing in the rain. Then one day it just disappeared, no note, no nothing. Last week I spotted the same truck at a construction site near where my crew was working. I asked the guy and he said he moves around because permits change every few months. He remembered me and threw in an extra taco for being a loyal fan. The barbacoa still costs 2.50 each which is insane for how good it is. Has anyone else tracked down a vanished food truck and found it way more random than you expected?

Same thing happened with a popup burger spot in my town. Showed up in a car wash parking lot on Fridays, then vanished for six months before I found them inside a brewery. The chase makes the food taste better somehow, like you earned that greasy goodness.

Three blocks and a closed gas station later I FINALLY found my taco guy hiding in a laundromat.
