If you figure something out I'd like to hear about it.

Do your garage in 5/8" drywall and you meet fire codes in some areas.
That thickness is not really 'fragile' unless you run your Escalade
into it full tilt. Finish off with those trick hanger panels for tools
and such and it will look rather nice. Plan on an epoxy floor finish
and you'll be one happy camper.

Thing is I am not crazy about mudding the drywall
