It can be fun to add a splash of color to our lives, whether our wardrobes, furniture, or even houses. However, there are also a number of reasons to go with a plainer color option, such as white, especially when it comes to owning a vehicle. If you are considering getting a pre-owned Jeep but haven’t made a solid choice about the color, below are a few deciding factors to consider.

  • Less Visible Scratches or Dents: For off-road fans, this can be a big plus. If you kick up any rocks or end up with a few scratches from an unsuspecting tree branch in the way, digs, small dents, and light scratches are more difficult to see on a white Jeep.
  • Stays Cooler: Getting into a hot, steamy, sunbaked vehicle in the middle of a bright summer day in South Bend is never a pleasant experience. However, if you go with a lighter-colored option, such as a white Jeep, it will be a bit cooler since white reflects the sun.
  • Be Seen Easier: Proven in numerous studies, white vehicles are the safest since they can be seen more easily on the road or in other surroundings due to their stark contrast. So whether you’re driving through Niles, MI, at night or on a neighborhood road in Osceola, IN, during the day, you’ll be easier to spot in a white Jeep.
  • It’s Trendy Since white is essentially a blank canvas, the color rarely doesn’t go out of style. Adding decals or other cosmetic applications is typically more apparent on a white vehicle. Lastly, a white-colored vehicle or Jeep will usually have a better resale value due to these points.
