Has anyone tried this? It's Coca-Cola's rival to MDX, except it's
not flat, overpriced, and doesn't come in a tiny bottle. It's
pretty good, and it appears to be working, since I was dead-tired
before I started drinking it just now.
It tastes like Mt. Dew, with more of a lemony flavor to it.
Here's what it looks like:

$0.89 a 20 oz. bottle. Not a bad price.

At least it's not the stuff that costs $2.50 for an 8-oz. can, tastes
like carbonated urine, and either does jack-crap or nearly gives you a
heart attack.

Good enough for me. Hey, it's only 89 cents a bottle, compared to $1.29 for anything else.

than any human ever should does not make you cool. Enjoy your

I saw this stuff on shelves months before I ever saw MDX. It's ok, in my opinion. Nothing terrific. However their http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=vault+cola&so=0 - commercials are really good!

ITs decent i picked up a bottle at Food Lion for $0.79. To me it seemes like surge with a new face, only not exactly tasting like surge. There is nothing in it like other energy drinks. Just high fructose corn syrup and the rest of the crap like regular soda.

Vault just came out here, too..
My friend bought some to school and I took a few swigs of it
It actually does taste good and seriously actually worked as an energy drink. MDX blows.

THANK YOU.
People at my work (resteraunt) are always like ZOMG RED BULLZ LOLZ OMG IM SO HYPER RIGHT NOW AHAHAH MAN THIS STUFF WORKS OMG OMG
Obnoxious.
For some reason my body just doesn't respond to caffiene. At first I thought it was because I drank too much, so I quit cold turkey for 3 weeks (first 3 days BLEW), and I didn't notice much of a difference. When I was done my 3 weeks, I drank a couple cokes and went to starbucks and got some drink with a double shot of espresso, and I didn't feel a THING.
Sooo... I dunno. I can drink one of them red bulls at 10pm and go right to bed whenever I want to. Who knows.

The majority of the people who use drinks for energy have no idea what there actually drinking.
http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-001-02s05pj.html - http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-001-02s05pj.html
The nutritional facts for red bull are not impressive, with taurine
being it's main "energy" supplement, considering there are alot better
alternatives such as AAKG.
http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-001-02s05pj.html - http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-001-02s05pj.html
And the so called vault thats supposed to be God's gift of energy on
has 47mg of caffeine, which is high for a drink, still compares as
nearly nothing to what morning weightlifters have been taking for
years.
CNS makes a great caffeine supp. Theres 100 caps in one $6
bottle, each containing 200mg of caffeine, which is more than 4 vaults.
http://www.1fast400.com/?products_id=2299 - http://www.1fast400.com/?products_id=2299
If your into lifting you can just buy an all in one, that has creatine
ethyl ester and all you energy supps in one powder you mix in a
drink. I use energized xpand by dymatize, and it kills any of the
so called drinks out there.
