    Any running board or nerf bar recommendations for the inseam challenged? I currently have the Ionic 3” nerf bars installed and by all accounts are absolutely useless when trying to get in and out as they sit way too high.

    I like my Steelcraft 4" oval steps. Low enough and far enough from the truck body to function well as steps.

    Ever seen AMP Research power steps? They're not cheap, but they lower quite a bit when activated...

    I've never had them on one of my vehicles, but the people I've met that do like them a lot.

    Trying to buy my father-in-law some nerf bars for his '21 Nightshade Limited. Do these come pre-drilled for installation of aftermarket nerf bars?

    Would go with the Predators. Good height and saved my 2023 Taco when I came off the road and hit the cement barrier. The steps stick out enough and did grind off a bit but kept the rest of the car getting messed up by the cement wall.
