i'm thinking, in my perspective, that green is the best for that truck, but, i like to keep mine "period" styled and painted, however, if you paint it snow camo, i'd like to see a picture, and it might be a bit tough priming from green to white on that big of a truck, but good luck, i think it will look cool
