I've wondered this myself. I'm in Alabama and the summer sun - as well
as ambient temps - can be pretty intense. Van sitting in the sun gets
plenty hot inside. The new ceramic tints help plenty - but the noonday
sun beating down on the old Tintop heats it up like a solar oven.It
needs new paint on top - and I was wondering about a more reflective
cooler and paint type for aiding and abetting cooling.

What say, Volks?
