Probably the same thing for boonies: dark green and tan with reflective strips all over. Close inspection gives you away, but if you don't attract that inspection, success.

Box trucks and vans are limited to industrial areas at night, but fuel stops and parking lots will work.
I know some people like ambulances but they are too wide for my use. They don't fit down narrow forest roads. They are also poorly laid out for living in. All the external compartments make them narrow inside.

As to vans and box trucks being limited to industrial areas - yes they fit in there. They also fit in residential areas. Lots of tradespeople take their vehicles home at night.
