    The one's referred to earlier in the thread, drop down outboard of the tailgate and serve their purpose well.
    I have a hitch step and a cap.
    I can lean over the tailgate and reach more than half way into my bed, stepping on it.
    And if you're agile, you can easily climb over the TG.
    On a side note, I had my tailgate covered with the same 3M Clear Paint Protector, I had installed on the front.
    Recommended if you're gonna be on a hitch step leaning in the bed a lot.

    Glad to help.

    The step extends out at a diagonal to the centerline of the truck. Stepping up its in the right spot. Coming down, I wish it were 3" further out, but it works.

    Simply put, I would buy it again if I sold this truck and started over adding stuff.

    It does appear that stepping down could be tricky.
