We’re currently on the road, so I’m not positive what the original steps our 2020 Solitude S came with. I can tell you that on our first outing I realized that those steps were going to present a couple of problems. Typically we pull into rest stops to use the rig’s bathroom. Our original steps extended too far into the next parking place - not something I was comfortable with doing when an 18 wheeler wants that space. (I have noticed upon occasion that some RV’ers don’t consider this inappropriate.) Our solution was simply to start stopping at truck stops where there was far more parking. (I parked a long ways out & angled into 2 parking spaces so protect said steps.) Before our current outing, I replaced the originals with the Torque Lift Revolution Uprising. (I’m under the impression that Grand Design has switched to these also.) These, like our previous steps, are stowed inside the rig. So far, we’ve been quite pleased with these. They do seem to flex just a tiny bit under my weight - 6’2”, 235lbs, still lifting weights, etc.
The biggest problem I had was getting them. Took quite a while for the order to be filled. They were shipped with incorrect spacers on one of the steps. Matt, at customer service, did a great job of rectifying that.
