Wish I had one on the F350 FX4. With the tailgate down I have to almost crawl up onto the tailgate or more often then not use the rear tires as a step and come over the side of the truck bed. Truck is dang tall.......and me not so much ;)
Same issue here, but I'm 6' tall so I'm not very short. The newer Ford and Ram HD trucks are really tall.
I'm going to check out some of these aftermarket options that have been mentioned.
While I am looking forward to getting a new truck I am going to miss my 1984 Nissan that I can stand beside flat footed and reach most of the bed. It sure is handy for chores around the farm but it is very much showing its age and I am tired of driving a jalopy. I am spending over $1000 on steps so that I can get into the new truck and then it will still be a stretch in most cases.
