Mendojen........and heat is the functional issue and more important for those without AC or climate control options. The other reason for my choice of white heat reflective vehicles. However, I can’t quite convince myself on the idea of a White FUV........Silver/White didn’t appear to be an option.
Note to those interested in seat covers. I contacted Wet Okole Hawaii regarding their water proof, heat, and cold resistant seat covers. Based on the Green Evergreen photo I sent, they thought it was the razor seat (RZR) and said they currently have custom seat covers that fit. Lots of cool seat cover colors and patterns to customize the FUV look.

I just can’t convince 2 of the 3 guys that silver (with orange or blue vinyl) is better than black. Is the silver going to be the same as Hula’s silver - because that is shinier and more painted looking than the black.

The guy (left side of the FUV) looks like Paul Teutul Jr. from the "American Chopper" show.

His color preference is orange and black. We live within spitting distance of Oregon State University

I am trying to sell them on silver staying cooler.

Note the gradual change in temperature as colors get generically lighter, it's not black vs. everything else.
Also note he measured the skin temperature of a shiny bright aluminum skin, but the type of infrared heat "gun" he used is fooled by (not accurate on) polished metal surfaces at local ambient temperatures.
Thanks! I sent the link to the guys.
