Food and Drink What do you call chili?

I was making a pot of chili a while back and while it was cooking I thought I'd do a little research on it. I found it interesting how the cooks who worked the cattle drives would plant small gardens of herbs and spices along the trail so they'd always be available for use. I also thought the chili wagons the women would pull in the square down in San Antonio was pretty cool. Gave me an idea for a business.

Down here(Springfield) we have things like the Taco Wagon to eat at. They have a small trailer they tow behind a car. They find a location and set up and do business. There's also the BBQ Bus. That things scares me because it looks like the smoker is sitting right above the gas tank.

There's also more then those two around. Anyways I thought I could do the same thing with chili. Philly's Chili Wagon!

I've eaten at the Taco Wagon II (Glenstone and Sunshine), but not Taco Wagon I (out west)

Has anyone eaten at the Twisted Taco on Battlefield or that Deep Fried Taco trailer at Fremont and Sunshine?

Any other Springfield mobile units worth checking out?
