I agree! Drive thrus would make Subway awesome.

There is one in Las Vegas where I live, and trust me it isn't any faster. I went to the drive thru. I was the only one in line and it took FOREVER. All because I wanted it toasted. Some of the appeal of Subway is you can watch them as they make it so there is no mistakes. But yeah, I see where you are coming from. And the sandwich that I got from Subway's only drive thru in Las Vegas? It wasn't that good and kind of stunk bad. Plus its in a ghetto area that I won't be returning to any time soon.

Actually, some of them do; just not most of them. Most Subways are located in strip malls or convenience stores where there is no room to put a drive thru. The thing about Subway is that it is so easy to build them in existing buildings like shopping centers, malls, gas stations, Wal-Mart's, college campuses, etc. which is why there are so many of them, but most of these locations cannot accomodate drive-thru's without extensive remodeling. But there are stand-alone Subways that have drive-thru's; they're just not as common. I know of locations in Longview and Marshall, TX, as well as one in Alexandria, LA, that have drive thru's and I'm sure there are many more.Personally, I prefer to go inside and watch them make my sandwich in front of me; that way I know they won't screw up my order like most other fast-food places tend to do. That's one of the good things about Subway, is that they make your sandwich in front of you unlike other places. But I agree that the drive-thru format is more convenient. It just depends on which is more important to you; fast convenient service or getting the order right.

Because there are way to many choices & condiments.

They don't have drive throughs at Subway where I live either. That would be a good idea.

The Subway I work at has a drive-thru, Drive-thru's at subway are pointless though and it takes up way too much time.
