You can't just park those things any where you want. If it's state or town owned land you have to pay them, if you park on private property you have to pay the owner. That's on top of getting a vendors permit. There still is overhead although not as much as a brick and mortar store front.

Hmmm, it seems you have a "food truck" scene in NH, but no "food carts."

There's a difference: the food carts are not mobile, except when the time comes to relocate: they stay in one spot, typically indefinitely.

I can envision a pod of food carts at the Weirs, sited on private property (hello, Weirs drive in location).
