I live in the Portland, OR, area. Something we see a lot of up here[*] is "the Food Cart Pod": Take a underused parking lot, or other large open space, near an office complex, and set up a brace of vehicles with kitchens in them, each serving a different style of cuisine -- for ex.: The pod nearest me has a Texas BBQ, next to a Scottish fish-and-chips shop, next to a Thai cart, and so on.
[*: These appear elsewhere in the USA, but Portland's pods are best-known -- at one point, Portland had the largest FCP in the world....] This led me inexorably to the image of a _CW_-universe FCP defending itself against some sort of threat (perhaps the "Crusaders" scenario -- giving new meaning to "take-out" >:) ). Since most FCs are conversion of existing vehicles, and tend to be later models, I looked through the _VG_s to find suitable vehicles for carrying a full Galley (_CFH_ 72: $2,000; 500 lbs.; 8 sp.) -- the Mini-Galley is nice, but most real-world FCs have the full version. I figured the FCs would have turrets, as a customer probably doesn't want to be in LoF of a side-mount should lunchtime become Interesting; so the short list of prospects is: Van: _Vacationer_; _Security Six_; _Road Hauler_ (less mini-safes); _Deluxe_. Pickup: _Micro_; _Texan_; _Vigilante_; _EconoBox_; _Virtuoso_; _Cowboy Stretch_; _Hauler_; _En Garde_; _Morgan_; _Longhorn_. Wagon: _Decade Delivery_; _Eagle_; _Scout_. And now I'm hungry....
