Like Foo's reference, I've always thought of the term greatcoat as something truly bulky and warm, like what you'd wear out to war with Russia. I also think of it as having a more militaristic look. Though Chris (Despos) said you can use it like you would with "overcoat" and "topcoat." Which I suppose technically are two different words, but in every day usage, seems to get treated as synonymous.
