Have any of you installed the electric retracting running boards, if so how do you like them? I have seen them online and really think they look good and offer the best of both a solid single running board and the retractability of those electric steps.

I have them still in the box for my Yukon. Very slick how they work and nice/clean looking when tucked away. I have seen these in person and have used them before. My friends wife has them on her Tahoe. They are not cheap but well worth it in my opinion. It took my friend around 5 hours to put them on his tahoe.

Sorry thats all I know.

I understand that, the hamsters where having a hard time getting in Pat's 2500 this morning. But I just think he is going to lower his a bit since it is a 2wd.

Hmm my birthday is coming up.. Oh McRat:D

That's a good idea:D

Maybe I will ask Santa for them. I just approved my landscaping for my backyard so I guess that will be my B-day present. I hate being practical -:t
