Been stuck for a few days trying to figure out what to do!

 

OEM 6" Ovals ---- N Fab Nerf ---- or nothing at all?

 

 

Bought some 6" OEM ovals installed on one side and 99% sure I dont want them. Not that they are poorly made because they are like a rock but they seem to flow well with my theme in my opinion (see pics below)

 

 

All info, thoughts or critisism welcome!

 

Thanks!

The chrome looks horrible with your setup and your truck looks like a lowrider with the steps.

If I were you, i'd go with no steps at all...

 

But if you HAVE to get steps ( I assume because of the missus), the NFab or Go Rhino Dominator IIs in black would look best on your truck

 

And I always say, the AMP powerstep is the slickest, most badass step out there...if u can swing the dough for one of them you wont be disappointed

 

 

If you like the looks of the steps hanging out there and need them, go for it. OR, if you are like me and need steps for family (required as part of truck purchase) and don't like the steps sticking out all the time, get the AMP power steps. Yes, they are not cheap, but I expect them to last as long as my truck (and they can be repaired if needed)..

I say nfab or nothing. I had nerf bars on my 2008 for my wife when she was pregnant and took the off afterwards. Makes the truck look too low.

Fixed side steps just don't work or look well IMHO..The retractable AMP steps are the only way to go..

And for the $1600-ish that they will cost you, you could buy nearly 4 sets of N-Fab steps. Personally, I have

better things to spend my money on, thanks. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the thoughts guys. I have to do something for the misses and kiddos when the ride. I found the factory OEM's for $175 on craigslist, decided to try them out after all dont think I will have a hard time getting my money back they are $600 at chevy place. Now I just need to find a set of N Fabs for that price and I will be set!

      3.59 Kroger’s in Montgomery Tx. 20 cents higher than most around here. Very unusual. Saturday they were 3.49.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      Starting at 17 running parts for my father’s construction business to haul our equipment. Eventually doing shows, sales and training after purchase. I drove a minimum of 50K miles a year. Half hauling something. After retiring 30K miles a year to the last 2 years 15K miles a year. 2/3rds highway driving. The major contribution to fatigue for me is from anticipation and awareness. I just don’t relax. Too many idiots on the road. There’s two kinds. The group that never leave the left lane tied together afraid to let anyone in doing 80. They’re mostly on weekends. Then the left lane sleepers usually next to a tractor trailer not advancing. Eventually the tractor trailer will drift over the sleeper will wake up. The train moves and the tailgaters who are usually mad as hell. You definitely don’t want to mix with them. The tail wagging bumper puller’s with under powered trucks are holding the tractor trailer up. That bunch are dangerous. I usually pace ahead all that. Unless there’s a gap when I can chill and let the speeders pass. I tried all different types of driving. I stay to the right except to pass, it’s the law that’s getting in forced more now because of road rage. I was so happy when my wife didn’t want to do the camping life. I had enough of pulling for work. The family has a bus and fifth wheel. I haven’t driven either one since retiring. No thanks.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yesterday a suggested youtube video thumbnail caught my attention so I watched through it and it was a bunch of short clips someone gathered together of people pulling trailers, a lot of them were bumper pull holiday trailers and a pickup or suv pulling it. a few fifth wheels as well, some motorhome crashes also. The tail wagging the dog theme was quite evident in numerous self inflicted accidents that took out vehicles around them sometimes in the process as the unit finally swung around and flipped over in the middle of the highway. Or the other classic which literally could be called "I forgot the trailer was back there" in passing another vehicle on a multi lane one way freeway and then cutting back in line before the back of the rv trailer had passed the front of the passed vehicle and often in front of a tractor trailer and that never ended well. Or the wide kick out swing of the rear of a long travel trailer as they have so much overhang behind the axles and the trailer smashes into the side of vehicles in the next lane over ( typically sharp turns in city driving ). It makes one leery for good reason to be near an RV trailer after watching a video like that and be it on the highway, in town, or at a gas station where that rear end comes swinging around due to the fuel station being so cramped and not intended for larger trailers. I wonder how many officers have heard those words though "I forgot it was back there" as they investigate the accident LOL.

      Just because a person can buy a travel trailer or a motorhome doesn't mean they can drive it properly. My observation during my RVing years.
