Drive-thrus are a way of life in North America. From Dunkin' Donuts to the average bank, driving up to a window for a service is now commonplace.
Most restaurants and other businesses with drive-thrus are designed to accommodate the average car and SUV. Some of these lazy-lanes are tight and can be hard on alloy wheels, but most of us in our Corollas and Accords can negotiate them just fine.
However, some vehicles are not at all drive-thru friendly. As a public service to our readers, we put together this list of vehicles that should not be purchased if you are a drive-thru regular.
Hummer H1
Nearly as wide as a smart fortwo is long, the H1 moves about town with the grace of a rhino in an antique store. Heck, a freeway onramp is tight for the H1. Best break out the ladder and order in person.
