Because no one want to listen to them yap on and on in the restaurant. And it could be a long drive back to wherever you live. Or the people at their home don't want to listen to them either.

I was wondering a good 30 seconds who the fuck Carbrian was
Try living here without one lol it's quite difficult and we try for years to get to a point where we can be free of the car
Can't argue with that. The US pretty much has no cycling infrastructure (and those "can count them on one hand" exceptions don't count)
I've done some bicycle-only stretches in my life. It's funny how literally every person I knew assumed I'd gotten my driver's license suspended for DUIs.
And constantly eating fast food from disposable dishes with a plastic fork. 🙄
What? Do you want fast food places to give you reusable dishes and silverware with a carry out order?
Do you bring it back or is fast food just gonna get really expensive?
Man, I cannot stand eating even chips in a car, yet this guy ate a whole lobster meal with butter dressing in it. Just seeing the thumbnail sends me shivers.
Because it’s more likely that you have an AC in your car than at home.
I'll allow it for Wreckless Eating coz they call the show CarBS (carbs hint hint), the only show where he sits in a car and BS about it. They are lovely bastards lol
They live in the car because they cannot afford to live in a real house or flat. This is not the car's fault.
I can think of few places that are more uncomfortable to dine on than a car seat.
...actually, car seats are pretty uncomfortable places to do anything, really. You expect to be able to do stuff comfortably there, but you just can't. It's weird. And at the same time it's not so uncomfortable that you stop doing stuff there entirely. And you're like "what's wrong with me?" but then you realise it's not your fault after all - it's the cars that are weird.
