Gas prices are starting to impact food trucks, especially in Arkansas. Some owners are adjusting to the prices by not moving their trucks as much as before, according to a report by KARK.

Tremell Billings, owner of the Utopia Deli, said he only moves once a week rather than three or four times to handle rising gas prices. Christina King, of G & J Soulfood, said prices are impacting her food truck as well.

"Sometimes you can move, and you're doing all this and you're paying the money for the gas, the propane, the food, items and stuff, and it's not even worth the move," King told the news outlet. "Buying the gas, the food, anything, all the products, all the supplies, just even getting ready… it's not easy at all."
