Thinking outside the vinyl sided box
I used 2x10 - 12 footers for mine. 3 - 12 footers covered my roof exactly after trimming off 4" for the overlap on two rake edges due to the rafter overlap. Can't believe Ronnie didn't remember mine and mention it. Guess I'm kinda forgettable. Mine is on 4' rafter spans, and it held Ronnie up....although he was not in his winter configuration.
Mine came from Lowes. Whitewood is what they called it and I can't find it exactly anymore.
I did not do the black tar paper, just synthetic UDL, then foil-faced foam, then metal. Mine was kiln dried, and I haven't enclosed it yet and heated, but you really can't see up in any gaps other than a dark shadow. But tar paper is cheap, and it would be a lot harder to put on later, eh 'Nut?
Last summer here in Missouri I received quotes of .71, .77 per lineal foot for 2x6 t&g yellow pine. Another quote for .77 and .92 lineal ft for 2x8 yellow pine. With the economy booming (or about to bust?) and the excessive amount of pine out west and Mississippi, I'm not sure what to expect.
I'm going to try to mill my own 2x6's, and have a local mill run it through for t&g. We'll see how it works.

Don't you need the tongue and grove to add rigidity to the roof?
Unless I did the math wrong, your price of .71 for 2x6 T&G is the same as the home Depot price for normal 2x6. Short tax and delivery, but still. I can't seem to find it cheaper than about $1.20 a of for 2x6.

Every time I have strayed from the teachings of Skip Ellsworth it has cost me money.
I love the mask mandate. I hardly ever have to bruh my teeth anymore.
