What’s the point of these running boards, they’re useless and just get in the way

For when the plywood gets stacked so high you can use these to reach the top of the pile from the side?

Don't you just stand on the tire?

They are designed to get the back of your pants leg dirty. It's a conspiracy by the UFDC. (United Front of Dry Cleaners)

I'll be replacing them with an Amp or other powered step if I ever buy one...

For your girl (and childrens) to be able to get in
Not according to my wife - she Hates them.
The only plus I see with them is that they might block some mud or winter slush off the body... only to get it on your pants when you get out.

I like them. I like to be able to slide up and over the side of my driver seat so over time I don't collapse it.
