I never got into that in my teen years because we had Jolt Cola - branded as "all the sugar and twice the caffeine"
Edit: Now I wonder if people were going into bars back then and ordering a Jack and Jolt, thereby far preceding the Red Bull and vodka.
Does it? Mountain dew has like 50-60mg of caffeine per 12 oz can, where an average 8oz cup of coffee can have somewhere in the 75-100mg range. A standard double shot espresso drink will have anywhere from 75-150mg.
Also, I don't think the caffeine content is the thing to worry about at any rate, I'm more concerned with the 46g of sugar per can.
Fwiw... Mt Dew Zero has 68mg/12oz. I think regular and diet are 55ish.
