Side Step with RAMBOX?

[HenryR]

According to the RAM 1500 booklet from the dealership, if says if you get the RAMBOX with the BUG, the side step is part of the package.

Can anyone conform this? I see it in black and white, I'm waiting on my truck it will be here next week.

It won’t be there. That is in early printout. The new documentation has removed it. You can try and fight your dealer to install it but it will be an uphill battle.

Even the website brochure still lists it.

I'm going to try to fight for it, the worst they can say is no.

Let me know how you make out. You could try to refuse it and have the dealer give you a “we owe you”. Maybe that would work.

All we can do is try...…. I'm a SOB though, I'll fight to the death.

They'll likely give in to me, just to shut me up.

Are you talking about a side step or the bed step? Side step is generally on the side of the bed in front of the rear wheel just behind the cab. The bed step is generally at the rear corners of the bed just under the bumper. My Longhorn with RamBoxes and Bed Utility Group came with the bed step installed from the factory. I am unaware of any side step

If you can get it, great, but I wouldn't go to the mat for a $200 part.

When you come back for an oil change they may pump the cheap stuff in to get their money back

They call it the bed side step but yes it is the one in the rear corner.
