Only the 2 liter bottles. We still generally use 12 ounce cans and 20 ounce bottles. Our gas station/fast food fountain drinks are also measured in fluid ounces.
We've got 1 litre bottles as well.
The 1 liter bottles aren't common throughout the US, and from what I've seen, seem to mainly show up in the northern states near Canada.
20 ounce bottle? that sounds British, aren't they usually 16 ounce pints in the states?
Our vending machines usually dispense sodas in 20-ounce bottles, or 12-ounce cans.
16-ounce pints are a very common size for beers (and even coffee), but not for sodas.
