TT steps are to high sometimes.

We taken our TT out 5 times so far this year. 3 out of the 5 times the step to get into the TT was a big jump for me. It gets a bit hard to get in and out sometimes. Our TT only has one step on it, not like the newer models that I see with 2 or 3. How have some of you gotten around this. My husband is a carpenter by trade so making something isn't gonna be a problem. I'm basically looking for what has worked for you guys and what hasn't. We have talked about building steps to hang off our existing step or build a platform that you can add steps to it.

    I made a wood step with 4 legs, non-slip surfacing, and slot hole to grab and move it. Sits right inside the door while traveling, and if we don'd need it sits just outside the door on the ground. Could have bought one similar but was real easy to build.

    Have your hubby make a 6" tall step platform. Use it under the bottom step when needed. If that is not enough, He could make 2 of them, one longer than the other so that they could be stacked and provide two steps if needed.
