Solid Investment
Love these running boards! They look sleek, the step is wide enough and sturdy. Took about 4 hours to install the running boards with my buddy, who's way more handy than me. It isn't the easiest DIY project but really manageable.

Outstanding
These Xtreme power boards are great! They were not hard to install but it took a while since its tedious work. My wife and kids enjoy the step as it makes it easy to get into the truck. I don't think I would have another truck without them. Let's see how the NJ winter treats them.

Extremely Pleased
Extremely pleased so far with these power running boards. Install wasn't too bad, either takes a few hours, but we'll worth it. Before I had these my family hated getting in 3/4 ton truck. Now it's a breeze for them to get in.

No Bulky Steps Hanging Down
I hate the look of big old fixed running boards hanging down which is why I went with these. They tuck up completely when not in use, but drop down just right when you need them. Wife and kids love them, I love that I don't gotta hear "why's your truck so damn tall" every time we go somewhere. Installing these was not fun. Wiring took long, the instructions aren't the greatest. Had to dig around online to double check a few things.

Definitely recommend
I've got a lifted 2025 Tahoe and these steps look and work great on it. My girlfriend used to struggle climbing in but now it's a breeze. They deploy without any issues and feel robust. Wiring was a bit of a hassle but once done no complaints.

No More Complaints from the Wife
My truck's lifted and my wife used to hate getting in. No complaints now, these steps saved me from hearing about it every time we went somewhere! Installing them took me a while, not exactly beginner friendly, but the instructions were clear enough to follow.

Smooth Access Upgrade
This step is wide and makes it easy to get in and out of the Sprinter even with work boots. It's long enough to cover both the front and sliding doors. It doesn't stick out, so no worries about hitting anything. The deployment is smooth.

Worth Every Penny
These steps are awesome. I drive a 2003 Dodge Ram and getting in was a chore after lifting it. Problem solved now. I didn't think I'd care about the lights but they're actually really helpful at night. The steps are pricey but honestly they're worth it for the convenience.

Great
My wife and kids had trouble climbing into our Transit. This running board solved that problem. It's wide enough for stability and retracts smoothly when the door closes. Everyone's happy now. I had a pro handle the installation.
