I used to take my old GM dually through drive-throughs often. It was a regular cab long bed pickup. The width of the duals wasn't a problem most of the time.
When I replaced the dually with my crew cab long bed single rear wheel F350, I found it harder to go through drive throughs with the F350 than with with dually. The problem is the wheelbase length of the truck. Even though the single rear wheel truck is narrower than the dually, the extra length of the crew cab makes it turn wider. Most drive throughs have a tight turn or 2 to go through. I have taken the crew cab through many drive throughs, but I have to do a little back and forth jockeying sometimes to get it around the turns, which I usually didn't have to do with the regular cab dually.
I find it easier to just park in the parking lot and walk in. No biggie.
