Amen! Nothing's worse than wanting to add a phone line or something and
having a concrete slab!
I plan actually to install a wood floor system over a crawl space. I
originally was thinking of accessing the crawl space from above but moving a
few yards of dirt would make more sense to get a more generous crawl space.

I'm beginning to look more and more at these guys:

Appears the building is metal but you can build the roof up just like a
conventional roof (ie. no condensation or drips!).
