I have a shortbed, so I cut off 20-something inches. Also a gap on one side of about 1-1/2'' that I shape a 1 x 3 to fill. When the plywood's peeling layers, or soaked in black oil, or warping, I just get a fresh sheet.
An oak-planked back deck is beautiful, but I'd have to keep a sheet of plywood on top if I still used it as a Truck. Which I do. If I wanted a show car, I buy a Dusenberg or Maserati.
