The second reason is because black is beautiful and never goes out of style.
The one and only downside to black is in the summer it get's hotter than any other color but all that means is the Vintage Air system will have to do it's job well.
hand prints and smugges are also a factor. I had a 4x4 black Dodge Ram 1500 and boy was it a chore to keep clean. Just saying.
