Imagine all the gas wasted by all cars in north America just idling in drive-thrus every day.

I used to be a big fan of screw this I'm going inside, but it's a mix now right? All the fast food restaurants have like one cashier now. Just because you go inside doesn't guarantee that you push your order up in speed, you're still waiting behind everybody else in line that's ordered and now with so many places having two lines , you're probably waiting behind half a dozen people even if you go inside and there's no one there. You don't even get the attention of the cashier right away because they're busy helping fill drive-thru orders. If there are a bunch of people in line yet to order you could make some distance. But now you've got to try to park get in and get back out with the drive-thru line cutting right through the middle of the lot.

Well you don't expect them to park their car, get out of the car, walk across the parking lot, open the doors to get in, stand in line, place the order, pay for the order, wait for the order, then have to walk all the way back to the car (which would include opening more doors), just to have to get back into their car in order to eat. Seriously, who should have to suffer such indignity?!? ಠ_ಠ

You’ve never, ever sat in a Taco Bell drive through line high as shit?
