[Re: Mudraider] #1059784 05/18/13 09:03 AM Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 32 CA, USA H Howah Getting the Wheeling Fever I think there was an episode of white color car vs black color car when left under the sun. I think the white color car was like 20'f cooler. On a side note, although I've never seen a black color postal delivery vehicle before, the white color ones I driven at work are awfully blazing hot. Much hotter then outside air temp. It just make me want to rush to my next stop and quickly exit the vehicle. 95 Montero SR Re: Let's chat about this white roof thing.

The postal jeep I had received two additional roof vents to help it out, then a winter camo paint job. Re: Let's chat about this white roof thing.
