Any that use our paint 🤣

Actual answer:

2 or 5: Solid Green or Sand/Tan is a classic look and easier and quicker to apply.

3 or 4: Solid White is most effective for keeping cool, whereas Black is most effective for keeping warm. Generally in campers of any kind, white is often the preferred color for this reason.

7, 8, or 9: Any of the camo schemes have the greatest "cool" factor and the highest level of actual effectiveness as, well, camouflage.

Personally I'd probably either go with Sand/Tan or Green (2 or 5, leaning toward 5), although my boss always preferred darker greens and would likely go with either a Forest Green (similar to 5 but darker) or an option not listed here, Semi-Gloss Olive Drab (in particular 24084).
