The wife needs steps.

Guys, F250 diesel, 6" lift,,(going higher) and the wife is not happy. I took the side rails (nerf bars) off. I just like the look better. and now she cant get in the truck. She's kinda little..... Been looking around online but cant find the steps that kinda fold up under the truck unseen and then back out when the door opens. any help with this would be great, and if the wife's happy,, it'd be better for me..he he. Thanks.

Looks like Bestop can be had a little cheaper right now, when you add them to your cart they are like $150 cheaper than listed and they have a $100 rebate offer now. If I didn't have the factory Ford steps I'd be all over a set myself.

I have one of these that I use when my Mom rides with me. I also use it around the place and I weigh over 300 pounds, so it's strong. They make a taller two step version also, and it folds flat easily.

I bought a couple of the folding step stools. One for the house for changing light bulbs and one for my Super Duty so short folks can get in my TK.
I keep mine folded in the back floorboard.

3 -4" heels would work, and look good in your truck as well
