As a rule, I avoid ALL fast food parking lots which do not have adjacent parking such as a mall, grocery or other other non food stores.
We then WALK to the restaurant.
Even truckers unless they are delivering to the restaurant will do the same thing.
Fast food joints cater to the drive through with no real regard to large vehicles or well planned parking so they often will have extremely tight turns and very small parking lots.
Just as a thought, many years ago we "kicked" the fast food "habits" years ago when we started RVing.
Instead we find a nice parking lot and fix ourselves a lunch or supper in our trailer. Often just simple cold cut sandwiches and chips or if we wanted to get fancy I simply plug the trailer shore cord into my gen that I carry in the back of my truck to run the microwave. After all you do have a complete kitchen on wheels and its a whole lot faster and cheaper than the purported fast food joints..
I always tell everyone that fast food joints are neither "fast" or real food... not to mention cheap...
My DW likes McDonald's coffee, so I bought the entrance sign,2 new tires' a wheel and a fender. This happened in Garden Springs, Kansas a few years ago. The Owner of Mc's was a class act. Helped me out getting tires and installing wheels etc.
