best running boards for 3500 4x4 duramax?
Any thoughts or opinions for the best (meaning function and sturdy) running boards or side steps for a '16 Chevy crewcab 4x4 DRW? Is it better to have open ones to drain ice and mud or just a rubbe...

My CC had the tube steps when I bought it. I didn't care for them as I felt they were too narrow and a foot could easily slip off if it was slick with ice or snow. I found possibly the last set of DEE ZEE diamond plate full length boards by calling DEE ZEE this was in 14
X2 to the full length when towing a 5er! Makes getting in the bed easy!
I like the functional look of the Dee Zee's. Surprisingly my wife liked them too. I will most likely get a diamond plate toolbox for the bed eventually.
I read some reviews on the Dee Zee's that said the aluminum was too thin and that they flexed. I downloaded the installation instructions and it looked like there are three L-brackets (braces) per side. Does that anchor them securely? Is the aluminum plate thick enough?
I like the bed section that flares out to the dually fenders. Has Dee Zee discontinued that product?
