A bit of an aside, but you have to wonder how much electricity they could save on air conditioning by painting their trucks white instead of brown. Perhaps they don't use any AC at all, which means their delivery drivers are stuck in that solar oven all day. I know they now at least paint the tops of their trucks white.

Edit: Fixed typo.

Given that the cab is usually left completely open, and that the cargo area isn't enclosed when it's in use, I'm not sure it makes sense to use aircon in a delivery vehicle,
