Muskegon!

I believe there's one still operating in Muskegon, MI also.

Re: According to Google Maps, that one has been closed. (Source)

Defunct?

Update! As of March 18th 2016 there remains 2 operational Hot N Now locations in the state of Michigan. The Sturgis Michigan location is on the michigan-indiana border and the Bay City location sits just West of Michigan's thumb and just north of Saginaw.

Additional Locations.

Searches recently listed Lapeer, Saginaw, Bay City, Sturgis. People on Facebook in the Sturgis area confirming that Sturgis definitely still exists. Bay City's Hot n' Now has an active Facebook page.

Removed In-N-Out section

This paragraph was unsourced and removed. I'm pasting it here in case someone can find support for it in reliable sources:

The purchase of Hot 'n Now by PepsiCo and its later expansion into California resulted in bad feelings between PepsiCo and In-N-Out Burger. PepsiCo had been In-N-Out's long time soft drink supplier and In-N-Out is known for its fierce loyalty to suppliers and often helped them out during hard times. By becoming a competitor with a very similar restaurant chain (similar simple menu, small store footprint and similar arrow logo), In-N-Out felt that Pepsi Co had violated that relationship and after a test run in ten restaurants, In-N-Out switched to Coca-Cola products in all its restaurants. In-N-Out has remained loyal to Coca-Cola to this day, despite the sale of Hot 'n Now in 2005.
