Does anyone actually use a nerf bar as a step

I had them on an 07 4Runner and found that if I stepped on the step it put me too high and I then had to crouch to get through the door. So I stepped over them even though it was a tad tall for me.
Sure looked nice though.
Now I have an 06 Prerunner that is just as tall. Are any of them low enough to be useful as a step?

 

Before I lifted my truck I never used the step, but now im lifted I have found myself using it!

 

don’t have them. test drove a few that had them and hated them! found my truck and it did not have them. If it did i would have sold them. I’m 5’8 and have long legs and don’t need a step. I don’t even have to hop ot anything to get it. even with 3” lift i would not need them. buddy has 3” lift on his FJ and i just have to hop a very little bit and i’m in.

 

They work great for washing the front windows / top of the truck

 

I use mine all the time.

 

Mine are more for door ding prevention.... I've actually never used mine to get in the truck

 

dirt bike stand work just as well. and i don’t have to step over/around a nerf bar or side step. would like some rock sliders tho even tho they stick out farther,i really don’t care if my pant leg gets dirty.

 

My kids do. I just get my pants dirty on them when it rains or snows

 

Wife and kids use them. I don't (I'm 6'-4"), except when I wash the truck it is handy to be able to reach the middle of the roof.

 

I have the factory "nerf" bars and use it everytime. My truck is only lifted a little but the more you slide your ass in and out of the truck the faster youre gonna break down the fabric and padding of your seat...thats why I use it.

 

I use mine when I'm strapping in the kiddo's car seat and need to reach over the seat, and as everyone else noted when I'm washing the roof or cleaning the middle of the windshield.

I don't use the step to get in myself and I've even considered taking the driver's side step off but my sense of symmetry won't let me do it!

 

^^^This...

and this^^^

I have the stock running boards...would rather have sliders

 

I installed mine so I don't have to look at the rusty frame rails.
And to deposit dirt on my pants getting in or out.

use mine to clean windshield and top of truck. Also keeps other peoples doors from hitting my doors.

 

Yep, best use for it.

 

i got the wheel to wheel and actually only use the step at the back to reach the middle of the truck bed.

 

When I had my NFabs on the truck I found I just stepped over them but my wife used them on the passenger side
