Default Olive drab trucks?

Anyone paint their truck in olive drab?...camo? My 7yr old son and I are going to paint my 85 F250 olive drab and stencil on some type of HALO graphic! He is a BIG Master Chief fan!...
We plan on using this truck for camping,fishing and light trail riding. I'm also planning on an expedition trailer build this spring.

Dieselcrawler had a truck that was camo and another in OD. Try looking in either the off road or show and tell areas to find some pics.

I've seen guys do the colored bedliner with a roller on their trucks, totally weatherproof and great for of road and in the woods. Find the paintable type and you're all set. Halos on herculiner!!

I was going to camo my truck, but I pretty much decided most home camo trucks look like junk. Seems like that is just what everyone does with an old, rusty pile of junk. I'm going either od, or a lighter tan color.
