Someone should message this guy and ask him to haul some plywood and post photos.
It won't be long .....................not the wait, but the plywood. It'll only stick over the tailgate by 18 inches.

I remodeled my kitchen a few years back and I used plywood instead of sheet rock in a lot of places. I wanted cabinets to stay put, I wanted my hood to stay put too... just much easier all around.

did you paint over the plywood, or drywall over the plywood?

A little of both. In some areas I just painted right over it and blended it. In other areas I did put sheet rock over it for the purpose of matching some wall construction that had double sheet rock.

yeah my buddy recently muded the gaps of some wood paneling then textured the wall, it looks amazing. Like somebody drywalled the whole room.

SO, texturing and painting over PLYWOOD can work!

Dearest all above posters,

How embarrassing! We were asked a question about our feelings. How we feel about sheetrock. This does not mean how sheetrock feels or what it fits in or what texture it has. Think of it like this, if you are jumping the pond, only to discover that your eyepads shrunk at the dry cleaner and now don't fit your socket perfectly, so you miss your blissful rest period, and your butler didn't think to mention it, you may be "miffed a bit", "put out", or "not at all".

Examples:

It miffs me a bit when sheetrock is under utilized, and I'll not be miffed at all if price is delayed one hundred years!

I was totally put out about it, they actually installed pywood instead of sheetrock! Other hand, don't mind waiting until everyone is comfortable before releasing price, how about say Junish?

I feel not at all about your little shit sheetrock problem Maxwell! It would be worse if we abandoned the price embargo!

My notations, Fivers

Possible bed problem with 4X8 sheetrock

that is the plywood notch. If you plan on hauling plywood you will need the bed outlet so you can use a saw to cut the plywood notch. roughly a 3x4inch notch

But for sheetrock, it’s self-notching. Just put the sheets in the bed, use a bumpy road to return from hardware store and when you’ll be back at home, you should find freshly notched sheetrock waiting for you in the bed of your Gladiator!!! :LOL:
