Drive thru RPGs is now apparently Drive Thru Stuff (still not sure what to make of their april 1st announcement), and Drive Thru Stuff includes Drive Thru Cards. Other than driving a stake into your brain, what does this mean?
Apparently, in the case of Savage Worlds, it allows you to order both a pdf and printed cards of Dramascape's official Savage Worlds Sci-fi Weapons card deck for $9.99.
Presumably, someone somewhere is even making money off this deal. I'm happily losing some of mine.

damn you. Now I might be losing some of mine!
That's a good idea for games where you need to track ammo and stuff like that. I also see that they have map/floorplans as well. Worth looking into further for sure.
^I've been printing and laminating tilesets purchased from DriveThru for a couple of years, but they are heavily skewed toward fantasy. I'm definitely keeping an eye on this printing option as I expand my collection to more modern stuff. I'll likely pull the trigger on Drive Thru Cards whenever my laminate pouches or color print cartridge run out, whichever comes first.
I have found that some players really enjoy having cards as markers or actual trackers for stuff. I have a couple of game mastery item and npc decks, the savageworld action deck, literally 12.3 million DnD4e condition cards, and now guns n'sh*t. I'm looking forward to seeing what other Cards might Drive Thru.
