    get some steps like others have said.

    i’m 5’7” or 5’8” and stock 4wd and just hop in no prob i may have to climb a little if i lift 3” and 33”s lol mom who is 5’1” has a little hard time with out the steps (she says she don’t but she does) i did not like any of the OEM steps they wear to high and just got in my way and got my jeans dirty stepping over them. my truck did not even come with them but some i test drove had them.

    A girl that I was dating just after I got my truck she was 4'9" and she got in no problem. No sliders, steps or platform shoes. You find an easy way to get in your truck some way or another.

    if you really love your truck you will find a way to get in it! haha.. everyone in my family is less than 5 foot exept for me 5'7"... a set of sliders or nerf bars can change the look of your truck.. add a step for you for ease of entrence and exit.. and sliders protect your car from being dinged by other peoples doors and such.. so WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN.. a whole bunch of win..

    Getting into my truck is the only excercise I get, so I take full advantage. Everytime I get in is different, I dont have a routine.
