Hey, there's a Sonic drive-in here in Greenville, NC (aka: G-vegas). The food is great and the service is good.

I have to disagree with my fellow Lousyannian...lol
They are GOOD!
If you want a burger with a different taste from the others, then this should be your choice. They remind me of that OLD fashioned taste....um um good! #2 burger, extra pickles, PLEASE!

There's a Sonic near my house. The servers don't wear the rollerskates, though. 
I went to one when I was on vacation last December with my family in a suburb near Nashville and the servers were wearing rollerskates. This is the first time I ever saw that in a Sonic restaurant.
When I was in Louisville, there is a dine in (not drive-in) Sonic restaurant and I was like "What the heck?"
I love the tots!

I'm sure most of you know that the rollerskate thing is from the fifties and sixties when "carhops" at drive ins often wore skates.
At the Sonics around here, some do, some don't.
I give bigger tips to the servers who do.
And, on the subject of tips, after my mom and dad divorced when I was very young, she had to work as a carhop and waitress for a while just to survive. (I don't think she ever wore roller skates, though.) Because of that, I've always tipped well.
Given the wages I'm sure they make, as long as I can afford to do so, I'll happilly tip any server.

Miss Sonic
I discovered Sonic while doing an internship in Texas (as well as Cracker Barrel). Love Sonic bacon/cheese burger, a diet buster, and tater tots.
Then returned to CA, don't think they are anywhere in central valley.
I was housesitting for a friiend in southern Oregon year ago, a Sonic opened off the interstate, people drive in from miles around to it.

Sonic ads on T.V. piss me off. The closest one to me is 90 miles away and everytime I see a new commercial I want one of those burgers or drinks so damn bad.
I think they do it on purpose those beaches!

Hey Killarneyrose,
I am from Maryland too, and I see the sammme commercials, and no sonic, it looks good, but I don't think there are any in MD, but I believe there are some on the west coast, west coast people correct me if I am wrong.

I Love Sonic. I'm in LA too and I think its great. The hamburgers are big so you definitely get full. They just opened one by my house and it is always packed. I like their ice cream too. I will go for a Sonic Cookie Blast anyday.

We've got Sonic in Georgia. If you don't have a Sonic nearby and want something similar, try a Checkers or Central Park. (Of course, you may not have those chains either!)

Can't forget Taco John's - best fast-food mexican this side of Tasty Tacos, that's what i miss most about being on the east coast: potato oles.
As far as Sonic goes, I think the food is generally pretty gross really - the drinks are solid though
