Good to know - thanks!I'm getting Laramie with power running boards. You have to go with the level 2 package and add the running boards as a $995 option. Apparently the level 1 doesn't have the electronics to run the power running boards.
Good to know - thanks!If it was me, I would get regular step bars...having a Limited with the power ones, I can tell you they are waaay-toooo-sloooooow to deploy. Kind of aggravating to be honest. Lol
are they aftermarket? the oem ones are slow, and that's a known issue.The power steps I installed on my Rebel are deployed and down as I am stepping out. I wouldn't consider that slow.
I’m retired, not in a rush anymoreare they aftermarket? the oem ones are slow, and that's a known issue.

I have a limited too, I highly disagree.
They're down as I'm opening the door, you must be swinging your door open like a mad man.
Mopar boards. I get out of my truck rather quickly due to a tiny two year old terrorist that rides with me. So, they are far from slow.are they aftermarket? the oem ones are slow, and that's a known issue.
I've had the truck for a month. I can't say I've noticed any need to alter my normal flow of entering or exiting the truck in order to wait for the step to deploy. It's there when I need it.If it was me, I would get regular step bars...having a Limited with the power ones, I can tell you they are waaay-toooo-sloooooow to deploy.

2 - You can add the Mopar ones yourself, but to get the soft button and cluster notifications of the board position then you will need the dealer to add the sales code or use AlfaOBD.
You can deactivate them or put them out all the time. Some people like to keep them out for cleaning purposes.I've had the truck for a month.

I was on the fence about ordering these and I can say I'm 100% glad that I did. Great option!
I'm sure I can go out to the driveway and figure this out but after a month of ownership, I haven't even noticed info regarding the power steps on the display screen.
What information/notification is displayed? How/why would I care about interacting with the steps via the screen? Deactivation?
In the "CONTROLS" screen there is a soft button. If you press it the boards will deploy and stay that way till you retract them. As mentioned this is great for cleaning or if you are in full parking lot it helps with door dings.I've had the truck for a month.

They came on my '21 Laramie as part of the Southwest Edition Package, which is obviously regional.I’m looking at Laramies, and not many available with power running boards. Could this be a dealer option or an aftermarket option? If so, any idea on price?
