Because you didn't address it, earlier.
Not overly relevant to the issue of stud spacing, that's why I never mentioned it.

I would say 16” or 24” for this shed will work fine. I personally would go 16” on something this small. You are only looking at 4-6 more studs building the whole shed. Maybe 30 bucks in studs difference.
The smallest pickup trucks are half ton you wont come close to being overweight with this project.
I'd use 1-5/8" steel studs, single top channel, lighter in weight than wood, and you gain 4" in interior storage, in both the width and length.
Home desperado can order anything on the market, delivered to the store.
I addressed your weight concerns.
Certainly there is a drywall supplier closer than, "mail order".
In the end, it's your time and money.
I just did a quick lumber list for your shed.
Wood framed walls will cost about $100.
1-5/8" steel stud framed walls will cost about $80.00 and about 1/2 the time.
Snow load on steel studs??I just did a quick lumber list for your shed.

I have an F150.
With all of the materials,
In the back of the truck is going to be:
my atv
ramps
3 5 gal cans of gas
3 2 gal cans of gas
200 lbs of sand
generator
compressor
tools
garden tools
lawn mower
wheel barrow
I will be towing my boat as well.
So, uhm, ya, I will get close to my limit of 4500 kgs. that is why I want to know the smallest amount, and the thinnest amount for the wood needed.
