Hi there everyone.

I have only one short question, what color does humvees in OIF and OEF have on their interior? Desert sand, green or can there be both?

Can be both. If the hardtop vehile was factory painted in 3 color camo, then the interior was left green even after the vehicle was repainted in desert tan.

It can also be a combination of both on the interior too.

I just looked at the insides of a tan colored one over the weeked, and it was tan all over the insides. The O.D. green ones we had at work were always the same color inside, and the camo'd ones were also green inside. For the life of me I can't remember what color they are painted under the hood, and have seen dozens of them in every shape and form out there (including many prototypes that never went into production.). The undersides of the tan one I looked at were also painted the same color as well if it helps

That's standard for vehicles factory painted in desert tan. Also soft top vehicles were usually repainted tan also inside.
