I'm driving behind a white GMC Jimmy SUV and it has exactly one bumper

I'd do a double-take myself, so I don't blame you at all for being
sensitive about it. But, your interpretation would likely only be
correct if it said "blacks" instead of "black", semantically speaking.
I'm not sure what "black and tans" are, though.
