> It only seats two yet has a bed big enough to hold a sheet of plywood.

Not really the point of the article, but, does it? This[0] says the bed is 60 inches long and 43 wide, and plywood is 96x48 inches. Is it like, any vehicle fits plywood if you cut it to the size of the truck or stack it on top?

Tailgate down, plywood lying with one edge on the bed and the other on the side?

But I agree, I would expect it to be able to fully contain a standard sheet of plywood if it made that claim.
