Step Bar Opinions please
Hello All,
I'm looking for opinions on the best step bars to put on my new truck.
Criteria are just value and durability. Black or polished both would look good in my opinion so no factor there. Vehicle is a F250 CrewCab SB 4x4 and I use it on a farm and to tow trailers mostly. Hard core offroading will most likely not be on the agenda.
Thanks

I have Carr's and just the single small step on each side (reg cab xl 4x4). I had diamond runners on my bronco, would have loved carrs on that.
I like the minimalist feel & look of a small step, or two if you have a crew cab maybe.

Every new truck I go to autoanything and see who has the cheapest largest oval nerf bars and get them. Never had a problem with any of them and have ran Westin, DeeZee and Steel Craft. I like the large oval ones for best strength and a large footing to step on. Every now and then I have found stainless cheaper than black, but only once or twice, otherwise I can't justify the price of the stainless.

Superseal - those look good and offer good protection...
I'd suggest amp powered steps as a step up from those -
neat hideaway when not in use !

I found slightly better pricing at 4wheelonline.com than autoanything when I bought my nerf bars.

Thanks to All
Lots of good suggestions and way too many options on the market to make it easy for a decision, however, I've decided to try the N-fab products I think.

I had black westins on my truck. Loved the look, but they only took two years to completely rust through. I took them off before someone fell through them. I would go with stainless next time. I am a cheap sob so i just jump up in right now, ha.
