I have a standard cab Chevy S10 pickup truck. One thing I like about it is that the passenger cab is so much smaller than the passenger compartment in cars.

That means that it heats up and cools down that much faster!

Maybe all cars should have that center roll up window like in a limo! When you have no back passengers, roll it up and only heat or cool the front!
