I recommend the treated plywood if the product is exposed to environment. The non treated will rot faster, were as the treated stuff will last as long as you own the coach.

check on the compatibility of the treated wood with the aluminum frame as to corrosion. Some treated wood can be very aggressive to some metals. I used some treated wood to replace the section under the Onan battery. I isolated the wood from the aluminum using plastic angle strips. It's too soon to know how this worked out.
