Mark MCD - Survey out today shows MCD behind Wendy's in speed and overall among burger chains - similar in fast food overall. The history shows Wendy's pulling ahead rather than MCD declining in speed/overall. My anecdotal experience contradicts the survey...I thought MCD was A LOT SLOWER than this survey suggest. They claim to have tested over 700 MCD outlets for the survey which is a lot more than the dozen or so I based my impressions on. Sometimes these surveys are biased by players, but if anyone bought these guys, it would seem to be Wendy's. A big chunk of my reluctance to add to a losing position is the impression that MCD is really sucking wind on speed...this causes me to revisit that thesis.
