Time to rediscover the drive-in restaurant. Only in 2023, it has:

1. Fast charging in every spot;

2. Espresso and high-margin dessert-in-a-cup drinks served right to your vehicle;

3. Free high-speed unlimited WiFi for customers.

Why get out of your car to walk to the restaurant next door? Connect to the free WiFi, turn on the charging, and place your order.

Then relax in your car and leave a low-effort comment on Hacker News.



Add a high-tech charging dock or a self inserting charging snake and you don't even have to get out of the car.


I believe the OP was talking about the old style drive-through where you parked and the server came to your vehicle to take your order. The order taker can plug your car in for you too.

What an "interesting" combination of high tech and low tech...


Ahh, that would be interesting to have them plug in your car for you too. Very low-tech, very practical! They are likely getting a tip anyways!


Yes, and old fogies like me can walk around such places proudly wearing our tee shirts that read: "To you, it's retro. To me, it's nostalgia."


You mean a teenager?


I wouldn't mind stopping at a Sonic drive-in for lunch & a charge...
