Did you Scotch-Guard your interior before this happened?
If you didn't... Yikes.
The worst thing about spilling pop is the sugar. When sugar heats up in the sun, it carmalizes, creating a brown, gooey stain.
Use cold water, hot water will cook the sugar and make it worse.
Wet it down and use a shop-vac or something to get as much out as you can.
Pray that bugs don't lay eggs in it.
Depending on the soda, you might have more troubles. Coke or Pepsi is very acidic and very high in sugar content. They also use coloring that will stain.
Less sweet soda, like ginger-ale or sprite, contain less sugar and a lot less coloring.
Good luck and when you do get it cleaned up... SCOTCH GUARD that thing! $10-$20 worth of the stuff is one of the best investments you can make!
