Although there are several drive-through food joints in Pune, we have always enjoyed the dine-in experience as a family.
In June 2025, I accompanied amazing local guides @Erna_LaBeau and @keithlabeau in their fabulous camper van to the Checkers and Rallys Fast Food in Detroit.
Here’s the lavish camper van of Keith and Erna. I got the front seat beside Keigth, who was driving. So I could watch the entire ordering process closely.
Note: In the US, the driver’s seat is on the left, unlike in India, where the driver enters on the right in a vehicle.
Also note that electric switches, when lifted, are ON, and pressed/pulled down are off.
While we were in the queue, Keith spoke to the attendant over the speaker phone that was placed far away from the counter.
Once the order was received, the camper van had holders for drinks, and the food was held in the hands.
After that, we drove around the western part of Michigan, visiting several parks and waterfalls, clock towers that Keith had made a list of - just for me to show 
We had an amazing wandering around Detroit, and finally dropped me back at the Detroit Hostel where I was staying.
It was a memorable first drive-through experience for me.
On the way back to the hostel, Keith also made a pit stop at an amazing shop called the TELEPHONE SERVICE that had a nice public clock adorning it.
I guess that the owner, just like me, had a fascination for public clocks and, more importantly, he was a local guide like everyone out here, who liked helping people without being asked.
Here’s a view from the street - I could not take my eyes off this simplistic yet adorable public clock.
