There are def diff between fiber and metal.  Bear in mind our fiber is
normally not insulated, too.  After living for 5 years in a 170" Sprinter
with a fiber top I'm very glad it was bright white.  The chassis did become
a virtual oven in the Texas heat tho'.  That's when I learned the Ten
Commandments of Thermal Mitigation (for fulltimers that is).
