Default Running Boards vs. Raptor Boards

Bought my truck a couple months ago and so far all I have done to the truck is add a ford bed mat and FX4 running boards. That is until today when my new(to me) Raptor boards arrived. Let me know what ya think, sorry for the dirty truck.

The FX4 boards are dark gray with black rubber tread. Duraflaps and rear inner fender liners are next. Thanks for the feedback.

Love the looks of the Raptor Boards! If I was going the lifted route my truck would have them for sure.

The Raptor boards look much better, but how do you like them getting in and out? Are they functional at that height or do they get in the way?

Thanks for the comments everyone.

I like how they tuck up close to the body of the truck. They are a couple inches higher than the FX boards but not a problem at this time, wait til I get the 35's though.
