Nerf Bars (steps)

RE: Nerf Bars (steps)
What I keep seeing on lower setting trucks like the Dakota is nerf bars with a nice dent in them from being high centered and then they look like crap, I just think unless you are a under 5' tall there is no use for them on a Dakota just something that is not functional.

paul05 only has 4 posts and he uses his 4th post to DEFY LIL?!?! wow... he must have courage.
i believe those of us with the offroad package (bigger tires and 4x4) are the only ones that MIGHT need nerf bars...and i say might because some of us (me) have fat aunts and short friends that could use them to get in.... it is a truck. also for older people...its not easy getting in even if it is a lower truck. but if ur getting it just for looks...lil is right about the damage they can collect over time. if ur gonna get them..have a lift in your near future...even if its an inch or 2...itd look/function better.

Sorry I guess I was just thinking of myself when I step on a nerf bar on a Dakota I end up looking over the top of the truck and then have to duck down to get in (I'm 5'9") and I guess it would be the opposite for someone your height, and your right kids and other passengers would use them, I guess when I think of nerf bars I think of full sized trucks with 8" plus lifts on them that you have to take a running leap to get in, I do think they can look good but not once they get dented up if that happens to them.

Officially I'll say I got mine for my 7 year old son to aid in climbing in/climbing out of the truck. He's small for his age, had a bone marrow transplant and stuff, so anything to help him I will do it. But, never-the-less, I like the looks of them myself. So, double benefits for me!

These are the ones that I will be installing. They will have to be custom fab'd since they don't make anything like this for our Daks. Thank goodness I found a place relatively close that will fab them for me. Mine will run from back of the front wheel well to the front of the rear with a small step that will allow access to the bed from the side. I'm like bjk, they are mostly for my son (6) so he can get in easier and wife, but this is the style that I like the best.
