Running Boards!
Does anyone have a set of these on their truck? I'm thinking about getting a set, and I'm wondering if foot purchase is difficult or if they tend to deform under a weighty person.

Well, it was a toss up between these and buying a set of stock running boards, but I am sure glad I bought these. I am in no way affiliated with the guys who make and sell these, but they seem to be really beefy and quite solid. Unlike the stock boards, when you step on them, they have no flex, and they seem to be built and the angle they mount at seems to resemble rock sliders. I like that they sit up a little tighter to the truck body and look more streamlined. They also seem to offer a bit better rock protection to the rockers too.
Two things that could have been improved is they could have built the boards to utilize the 3rd running board mount the supercrews have... and they could have included mounting hardware. Is they are, they only have two mounts, which are more than enough, but what about those 300-400 lb passengers? All in all though, I am very happy.

Also could we get more pictures I'm very interested.
