For the same reason people don't like to see a family member wear all red to a funeral.

Still, calling a red hearse "the most inappropriate ever" sounds like a challenge more than anything else.

The person was gibbed.

I saw a white hearse today.

Heh, true fraggle; I had to exaggerate and have a bit of fun with the title, likened to say, the comic book guy from the Simpsons.

Most of that thought I had just came down to the fact that aside from the paint job, it looks very much stock and serviceable. I couldn't imagine buying a hearse, making the decision to put money into making it different, rather than leaving it with the appearance of still being in service, and stopping only at a red paint job. Unless the guy just got tired of people walking up to him asking for discount burials and on-the-fly body transport.

I see no problems with a white hearse, though, but that is certainly less common than black ones.
