I just have a 77"x10' utility trailer with 2x6 treated lumber. I try to keep the gaps clear of trash and treat it every year with Thompson's or it's equivilant. It's 10 years old, sits outside, jacked at a slight angle to drain and the floor shows no deteriorization at all.

I built a picnic table when I was a Sr. in HS and because it was close to the end of the school year and I needed to fill some extra time without starting a new project, I treated the wood with it every day for about 2 weeks. That was in 1960 and when Mom left the farm in the mid-late '90s, that table was still in use and left at the farm. Dad had re-painted it a couple of times over the years, and the only slight rot was where his paint caused a pocket between 2 of the boards. I should have trucked it here to Kansas with me.
