According to their Facebook page, Boston Speed's Famous Hot Dog Wagon is "looking for a investor for a new truck or two," though no further details have been given. In late 2010, it was reported that Speed's had been planning to open a brick-and-mortar restaurant in the Fenway neighborhood of Boston, and last June it appeared that the hot dog place was going to open a new cart across the street from Gillette Stadium (which is home to the New England Patriots and the New England Revolution) in Foxboro, but neither place opened. It could be possible that the Foxboro plans may be back on track once again since the owner of Speed's is looking for at least one new truck, but that is only speculation at this point, so keep checking back for updates.
[March 26 update: The Boston Business Journal reports that the owner of Boston Speed Dog is indeed looking to get a second truck, and he is also planning to take his existing truck to various sites around Boston as part of the food truck pilot program. The article mentions that starting April 1, the hot dog wagon will be found at the following sites: Monday--Copley Square (Boston Public Library), Tuesday--Chinatown (across from RMV), Wednesday--City Hall Plaza, Thursday--Financial District (Milk Street), and Friday--Fenway (Hemenway Street). Hours will be 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM except for Wednesday, when it will be at City Hall Plaza from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM.]
The address for the original Speed's is: Boston Speed's Famous Hot Dog Wagon, 54 Newmarket Square, Boston (Roxbury), MA, 02118. Their website can be found at http://www.bostonspeeddog.com/
