I used to live in Indiana and now I live in Pennsylvania and it's the same way.

Different regions of the country say different things, as well as have different accents and fluctuations to their voices.

I also call a big rig/mac truck a semi. Here they call them tractor trailers.

um I don't really see what the problem is with people and pop! if they prefer soda then ask for soda!! but if where you live don' t really carrie soda or pop ( I'm confused now ) then just ask for water! then when you get home drink the pop or soda ( srry still confused )

Where I'm from we call it Soft Drink or Fizzy, not Soda or Pop. Soda might be used occasionally, usually on the dessert menu (Ice Cream Soda for Ice Cream and your choice of Fizzy for instance, otherwise known as a Spider Drink) or in a drink name (Creaming Soda or Ice Cream Soda). Pop is more commonly referred to here to describe a type/style of music.

It's funny, when you ask someone if they want a drink, and then you ask them what kind of Soft Drink they want, often I've noticed people say Do you want Coke, Pepsi, LP, or Lemonade? - listing brands, except for Lemonade which might be Sprite or 7Up, but they never say Sprite or 7Up, just Lemonade, but always differentiate between Coke and Pepsi or Coke Zero or similar instead of just saying Cola.

In the end, it doesn't matter what it's called, so long as you end up with what you wanted!
