Just got an F150 4wd extended cab that is a little higher than what I
used to drive. I need to add some running boards/steps.
The problem is the "wife to be" has rheumatoid arthritis which makes the
climb a little difficult at times. Looking around at commercially
available steps and running boards, it seems that you gain only about 4
inches in reduced step height. This may be a little too high still on
the "bad" days.
KISS - buy or build a nice wide and sturdy footstool for truck
access on the 'bad days', and toss it in the bed of the truck after
she gets in. ;-) Between that and a running board/nerf bar step, she
should be fine.
