Question Camouflage

What does any one have to think about putting camouflage on their truck?

My 82 F-250 4x4 was a huntin and chore truck.I gave it a 4 color camo job to hide the rust-lol-and most critters see shades of grey!A buddy of mine did a nice job on his Bronco daily driver complete with camo netting on the roof rack where he kept his spare tire.It was an eye catcher in the city!! Hard to stay low profile lookin like that on city streets.He got lots of attention-mostly from the police!! ...you asked1

I did it because I had a black cab, sky blue fender, dark blue hood,and orange doors.

A couple years later I changed the bed, and painted it olive drab....but ran out of paint. See "ugly old reliable truck" in my gallery.

My '83 Bronco had the paint coming off from the high pressure washers. Right down to the bare metal. I camo'd the entire thing, even the headlight covers I made for it. The wheels, too. I got more commentary than if I would have gotten a $5,000 paint job. Also, I never worried about how much mud I got on it, or scratching it. Even looked a little better when it was somewhat dirty. I drove within 15 feet of deer, and they just looked at it and couldn't figure out what it was, engine noise and all, they just stared until I honked the horn. Elk would slowly walk away, they knew something just wasn't right.
