I installed Pergo flooring over the plywood using the foam padding recommended for that stuff and it is about the same as carpeting for warmth and sound, maybe better.

Your lower cabinets are interesting. Did you build them yourself or purchase them from somewhere? We are trying to find alternatives to the original which is not is such good condition anymore, and we do not have equipment to build.

Floor is free floating with minimum 1/4" around all sides but the sofa and the chair pedestals are bolted through it which makes it less than free floating. Here is a photo in my album - see the photos after it http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/showphoto.php?photo=35096

Glenn,
You don't mention the year of your GMC, my 1975 Avion (started life as a Transmode) had an insulated floor when it left the GMC
factory.
From ground up:
Aluminum sheet
3/4" foam
1" Plywood (maybe 3/4")
Regards,
Rob M.

It's 3/4". My 74 is 1" and the 75 with the foam and aluminum has 3/4" plywood.
