Mellow Yellow is the southern equivalent of Mt Dew.

Kinda similiar to the Mr. Pibb / Dr. Pepper controversey.

I think its a regional thing...

I liked the #46 City Chevy Better personally..

I used to drink that stuff - Chris Allen used to LOVE it - it's actually a touch sweeter and slightly less carbonated than Mt. Dew. Gross, I know

I would compare Mellow Yellow more to the store brand wanna be Dew. I was addicted to Dew for 10 years before I recently switched to Orange Powerade though if they have Pepsi products, I still drink Dew. The car is sweet and I can't wait to see who you all choose as #1.
