Grow your business with a custom
food truck.
Reach more customers with a mobile business truck.
We live in a “come to me” world. You can order your groceries online and have Walmart bring them to your car. You can order anything you want on Amazon and have it shipped straight to your front door. It’s getting harder and harder to get people in your brick-and-mortar store because they want you to come to them.
From small-town fairs to big-city events, your competitors are meeting people where they’re at. Businesses can’t rely on people to come to them anymore. Now, they have to meet the customers where they’re at to survive.
You’re in the right place, and a mobile business truck is the answer. Go where the people are and open doors of opportunity for your business.
If you dream it, we can help you build it!
You’ll start with our in-house inventory and work with builders who create your custom mobile business truck. We meet every need to make sure your new truck is perfect for your business needs. On top of that, we’ll be with you every step of the way providing expert advice.
The Russell Barnett Ford Family has been in business in Tullahoma, TN for 41 years. Bob Trewyn, the Commercial Sales Manager, attended the Spring 2017 NTEA Truck Show where Morgan Olson introduced the first Foundation Food Truck. Bob knew it would be a hit and was all in when he saw it. Within a year, Russell Barnett Ford became the largest stocking dealer of Foundation Food Trucks. Bob has been handling upfitters from New York to California and selling trucks to most major upfitters in the United States. In 2020, he brought on Greg Knox to help cover the rest of the United States. Now we sell over 30 upfitters and other numerous Ford Dealers in the U.S.

Custom & Built to Order
Every truck is custom-built to suit your mobile business needs.
The process starts with a meeting. We talk about everything you need in or on your truck. From there, we pick the correct chassis size that meets your needs. Then, we send that chassis foundation to our authorized upfitters and builders to create the rest of your custom truck.
We work hard to make sure you get whatever you need for your
mobile business.
Just like every business is different, every food truck is different. We’re here to make sure you get the exact, and best, food truck you need to make money.
We’re here for you in the:
We’re invested in you, and we want you to succeed.
We act as your counselor through the entire process.
When people come in looking for food trucks, pet grooming trucks, or mobile boutique trucks — they often don’t know what they need or even where to begin. They get lost in the weeds on things like how big it needs to be, what things the truck needs, and how to follow the state laws and codes. We understand all of it, and with a detailed understanding of your business, we work to make sure the mobile business truck we create is the one that you need.
There are several options for your truck design. From the internal blueprints to how many inches of floor space you need, the numbers and choices can become too overwhelming to follow. We want your mobile business to be perfect from the inside out. It would be easy to just sell whatever we could and move on, but that’s not what we’re here for. We want to make sure you get exactly what you need.
We have truck foundations and chassis in stock at our dealership. In fact, we’re one of the only dealerships in the area that keeps them on hand. From there, your exact chassis goes to upfitters who design it from the ground up.
We want to make sure our upfitters are the best in the country, so we visit them—from California to Michigan. We’re checking for cleanliness, structure, and quality of services. If the upfitter is not up to standards and not producing quality work, we move on and find a new upfitter to design your mobile business.
This process doesn’t have to be complicated. We are there every step of the way to make it perfect.
We’re even there for you on the little things. We help ensure you meet the codes necessary to run your mobile business. And we work with you through the bank to make sure you’re eligible for loan approval.

To Whom It May Concern:
I have been doing business with Jack of All Trades for about seven years now. They have done everything from maintenance and repairs on my old food trailer to building me a brand new food truck. They make the processes very easy from vehicle selection and offering project financing options. They offer experience in proper equipment selection and placement. Graphics, menu placement and color schemes are some additional services they offer. The owners and staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. The craftsmanship of my truck is second to none in the food truck industry. I get nothing but compliments as well as attract new & larger business when my truck is seen. Throughout the years, Jack of All Trades has been essential to the growth and development of Jolly’s Catering and Events.

We specialize in consulting and building for NEW mobile business trucks. Using someone else’s custom truck is complicated and, in the end, more expensive.
The last thing you want is to invest $80,000-$150,000 to build out your mobile business on a used chassis that could have age, mileage, and wear and tear. You set yourself up for extra expenses related to repairs down the line.
With food trucks specifically, used trucks come from all over the country. States have different laws and codes that you must follow. We know those codes and can help you no matter which state you’re from. It’s important to note that the process of changing an original food truck into a new custom food truck that meets requirements is a massive undertaking. Using someone else’s truck will take a lot of work and be expensive. We highly recommend getting a new, custom food truck built just for your business.
We’re ready to guide you through the financials, laws, codes, and creation of your custom mobile business truck.
Make it easy. Make the money.
It’s getting harder and harder to get customers in
brick-and-mortar stores. Take your business to them.
We live in a “bring it to me” world. No matter how much generations or customer behaviors change, businesses must adapt to always meet the needs of customers. It’s not enough to throw a sign in your store window and hope the customers come—the industry and marketing world is too jam-packed. It’s busy, crowded, and noisy. Now, you have to think outside of the box—or at least out of the brick-and-mortar store.
Unlike most food truck dealers, we keep chassis in stock.
During our initial meeting, we’re able to identify exactly what you need for your mobile business. From there, we can find the right chassis foundation for your food truck. Unlike most dealers, we have chassis in stock and on hand. Most other dealerships that offer food truck or mobile business buildouts have to outsource and get foundations from other dealers like us. We have things in stock, giving you a variety and a lower price.
Depending on your needs, your chassis can include:
Built by the best.
We use upfitters to build on to the chassis. They’re from across the country and have worked with major brands all over the globe. Although these talented upfitters are from places as far as California and Michigan, we visit their facility to audit for industry standards and updated processes. We want our clients to have the best food trucks on the market. To do that, we have to make sure everyone in the process is professional and consistently producing quality projects.
We’re with you every step of the way.
We even fly across the country to make sure you’re getting what you need.
We fill our inventory with the
Morgan Olson brand.
In addition to a quality chassis, they provide an extra 3 inches in their trucks. The average food truck chassis is 93 inches wide, but Morgan Olson’s trucks are 96 inches wide. Three inches doesn’t sound like a lot, but it changes everything. Major brands like Ben & Jerry’s and Chili’s trust Morgan Olson, and we do, too.
