Just a short comment if it applies. Chevrolet Step Side trucks built in the 30,s 40,s, 50, 60,s 70,s and eighties all used White Pine for the floor of the bed. Chevrolet engineers must have thought hard on this one. When I restored my 54 Chevrolet truck I used pine and treated it with black deck stain. Doulgas Fir is almost a hard wood and might be better. Good luck with your decision. One reason for the wood beds in the trucks versus steel was for farm animals.
