here's the difference...i think the running boards take away from the lift.

I personally think both pictures look good. For me I think I would go for the running boards for ingress/egress ease. Sharp looking truck.

Think it looks better without. Takes away from the lifted effect.

I'd most likely remove my, but with the wife and kids around, I have no choice but to leave them on.

I say leave them off. It definitely takes away from the lift. If anyone complains about climbing in just pull up to a curb and let them get in that way. Its what i do for my girlfriend and it works

Leave e'm on. I use mine they save the edge of the seat cushion from butt wear. Sliding in and out eventually squashes the seat cushion.
