Question about Sonic

The french fries thread made me think of this; I have a question about Sonic and it might be stupid, but I have to know!
I've only been to Sonic once - they have one here by our new house. DH and I went to get some ice cream one night, and after the girl dropped off our order at the car DH says, 'you were supposed to tip her'. I was like, huh?

So, are you supposed to tip at Sonic?

Oh no!
Well, we only spent like $5, so it wouldn't have been much of a tip anyway

Why didn't he tell you them or just hand over the $ himself?

Why do you tip? It's not like a drive through? Is it like 50's style car-waitress service?

Heather, you pull into a parking spot and there's an order board (like at a drive-through). You place your order and then just sit there and wait for them to bring your food out.
Clay didn't have any money on him......and I guess he thought I'd been to Sonic before.

It's so funny that we see the commercials on LI and there are none around here.

We went in FL! Great burgers and shakes! I don't think we tipped, but we didn't know any better...

Arby's makes a little more sense though, b/ c they are in NJ & there is one in Queens & one in Rockland county.

I know! They don't even have any in any states around here
-- I checked the website. :blush. I don't know why they advertise--are they national commercials?
