Don't know about the paint color, but it would seem reasonable that a lighter color van would heat slower than a darker one, up to a point. Like if you drove from under a tree to sit out in the sun. The lighter one would heat up slower inside than the darker one, but eventually they both will be equally hot. A good UV rejection window tint makes a HUGE difference in how fast the vehicle heats up from solar radiation, as the uv passing through the glass really heats the air inside. Block the UV and it slows heating dramatically. Regards, John Rodgers 88 GL Driver Denis-F.
