I believe the panels traditionally had wood rear floors. Perhaps that is why the Subs have it? For ease of the factory build process? I'm sure it was also a cost saving measure. To my memory, it is marine grade plywood.

I'm sure GM could easily get their hands on plywood wider than 4 feet. I think that is what the consumer is used to seeing, but that doesn't mean it can never be larger.
