I guess I have a hard time believing that. I have a white pickup and we just sold our black van. I could get in the pickup in the summer sun, roll the windows down and it was fine immediately. The van however was always dramatically hotter inside, though I never took temperature readings, it's very obvious from just what I've seen with my own cars it makes a difference.
