    Has anyone experienced with the Westin Gen X step bars? They looked ok in the picture. I like it how it is oval (kinda like the shape of the tacoma design). Please let me know if this is a good investment.

    Personally I like n-fab steps better. If your going to do any serious wheeling get sliders. I went with steps and in the future will be upgrading to sliders, wish I would've went that route first.

    The Westin you are asking about is a new bar. Not sure there are too many out on the road yet. I haven't sold any of them, even for the "Big 3" trucks.
