Nope.

I would be afraid some of my bros would see me use it.

I know - it is very agricultural -- however, looks functional and cheap!

So far 2 of the claimed 2025 OEM bed steps that I have bought -- don't fit.

The picture of the guy walking up it in sandals was really you. Why you gotta lie on a forum? ROFL.

In all seriousness, I have an MFT and the factory step. When I remember, I use it…and have zero qualms about buddy’s seeing me do so

At 300lb capacity for that ladder… I better hope to only be carrying a 6er up it, If I go full case of beer, I may be testing the limitations. LOL

Yep, me with my sandals and a box of butt tampons.

Safety factor of at least 1.5....

Also been looking for a bed step for the 2025. The integrated step in the bumper is the one thing I miss from my GMC.

At least you won't leave it down and drive too far. Not that I have ever done that with the bed step.

Man could kill himself falling off that ladder.

Yeaaaaaaaah. Tbh id rather just keep a little 2ft step ladder in the bed and use that. Theres gotta be recommendations on bed steps that can mount to your truck man. Can you show us what bed steps you tried getting since your 0-2 on them? find that hard to believe saying they were OEM.

I carry a folding step ladder behind the front seats when I need the ability to get in and out of the bed. Easy to use technology, I can use it on either side, there are no holes to drill, and the stepstool/ladder does not take up space in the bed unless I want to carry the ladder in the bed.
I am somewhat intrigued by the product, but I have a solution that works for me.

It is out of a sense of cost, practicality, and safety. For 40-plus years as a Paramedic, I've seen enough serious injuries from folks falling getting in/out of their pickup trucks. For the few times, I need the ladder to get in and out of the bed climbing vs. over the tailgate it is just easier to throw the ladder into the back floorboard. That way I'm not a customer for my fellow Paramedics...
