Perhaps, particularly if you have a bunch of different styles and toppings you could get away with only serving French fries. Places like this >>16804576 >>16804590 >>16805504
As mentioned, they are popular in theme parks, fairs, and tourist locations
If you have plenty of toppings (cheese, chili, poutine, gravy, onions, as well as malt vinegar, and other sauces you don't need hot or fresh) and can do different types of fries (waffle, curly, shoestring, wedges, tornado, etc) I could see it being something quite popular with hipsters who want super special fries and normies alike. There are industrial machines with various attachments that can be changed out for different cuts pretty easily, so really all you'd need is a few pieces of specialized equipment on top of that for weirder cuts like the tornado, for which you can also buy an industrial slicer.

My family runs a food truck that sells pretty standard fried fare (burgers, chicken, fish fingers, fries, etc) and is constantly booked for private events. I don't think a specialist truck like this would probably see the same kind of requests for catering, but if you're taking it out and parking it in some downtown area with lots of people, I could see it people popular with, again both hipster foodies who will want tornado fries drizzled with cojita and gochujang, and normies who want just want fries with cheese. Because you really only have one main ingredient, as long as you have plenty of potatoes, all the more obscure toppings you can reasonably sell out of without causing much annoyance. The depth of variety is something you need to consider as too much gets intimidating for customers, but you can test the waters with more specialized toppings and see if it's worth carrying the ingredients.
Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think the idea is viable in an average-sized food truck, OP. Good luck.
