The Great Food Truck Race debuted in 2010 and I thought I'd be late in reviewing this on IMDb. But it happens that so far there's only been three user reviews, and all posted in 2020. I like the enthusiasm and passion of the contestants as they develop food truck cuisine to win! Let's have more seasons of The Great Food Truck Race!

I've watched Seasons 2 to 4 and 3 other seasons. I like Season 3; working all shifts (including the 1:00 am graveyard shift); traveling all across the country from California to the northeastern-most part of the US (where, if you make a wrong turn, you end up in Canada). If you'e binge watching, it's the best show (The Great Food Truck Race) from the food network. I've watched hundreds of tv shows and thousands of movies. It's a pretty great show.
It was a good show. Then apparently drama and rigging the game became more important-like with Khana. In previous seasons if a truck was down someone they had to stay that way, and if a truck made a bad decision then consequences came with it; was not only completely unfair but really sucky to promote that kind of behavior. Also, why just LA? The challenge was more exciting when it wasn't bound to the producer's home town. It meant that during the trips the team had to research the town, figure out local events and possible selling spots, along with looking at what was present and figure out how to make an appealing menu. This took real skill and determination. Please go for quality, real challenges, and kindness. The world is a hot mess enough as it is. Thanks!

Tyler Florence, I have watched every season of The Great Food Truck Race
This season was the most disapointing allowing "Maybe Cheese Born With It" at Glamis, CA
To sell food 90 minutes before anything is ready to serve, acruing tons of extra sales. It caused other trucks to panic and try to do the same. This gave them an unfair advantage as they worked longer then anyone else. When you call it on sales they can still serve up the extra 90 minutes worth of sales.
In past seasons the trucks did all the prep and then opened to sell. Where do you draw the line to make it a fair race?
They won that week by cheating as far as I am concerned!

Season 15 with the drag queen. RIDICULOUS. AND they keep being moved on! Their food was horrible the first episode - they should have gone home then. Then down the road - they park where there was no business ... along comes Tyler telling them WHERE to move to get business. Nope. That's playing favorites ... and giving a team recommendations that are not fair. It up to the food truck participants to find a good parking spot. So rigged in favor of the drag queens. Pretty much done with this show.
I used to love GFTR - but this season is complete BS! I wouldn't assume many (if any) food trucks operate in WINTER in Alaska, so why send them there to do horrific tasks like cooking s'mores over an open fire. I'm done - will not be watching anymore episodes SMH.

Once a great show.... it just feels that is reduced/catering to uhhh ummmm lets just.say.a show for the 3.5 % of the population. I guess because..... 3.5% of people in hollywood just assume the rest of the 96.5% of us want to watch. Well you are wrong.
This season is really boring, no contestant is likable or relatable in any manner, the food they make lacks inspiration (except for team eso) i am 5 episodes in, and dont really care who win or loses' .
I would also like to see the.dd214 of all 3 of team members of." team southern pride"... all 3.....

I watched five or six seasons of the show but last year was the worst by far but I kept it on my DVR until 10 minutes into the show this year. I knew they were gonna keep on going like they did last year. What was entertaining for the first few years was good food trucks making good food. That's not what's happening anymore. I really really really wanted this year to go back to the old formula but it didn't. So I will be taking it off of my list of things to watch this summer which is sad because I really enjoyed it the first few years. I wish they would go back to having food trucks selling and not who has the biggest social media, following or social background that you desire to continue on when you know there's no way they wouldn't without some creative producing.

For years I have watched TGFTR and anticipated watching it this year as well. However, after watching the first episode I was not impressed. The behavior of some of the contestants was nothing short of bizarre. Each week I checked in to see if it was improving. And it wasn't. Tonight I checked in only to see one of the contestants rubbing his/her? Butt up against another contestant's front! I am VERY disappointed. :(

They ruined a great show. Talented people lost and very untalented people lasted until the end. Won't watch another season of this. I guess I should have expected this in this day but very disappointing.
