I guess I haven't been down VM Drive in a while. Are you saying the old vintage Arby's was modernized?

That is a shame actually. I liked the old mid 60s vintage Arby's there. You don't see any of those fast food franchises get to remain in their mid 20th century form very often if at all. In fact that Waco Arby's was the only one like that I can think of.

Incidentally this bank just appeared in Robert Redford's most recent movie. He played an old bank robber who robbed it.

It's still the same Arby's I always remember, including the giant neon light cowboy hat sign.
