I like them. Without them I'd have to lift the twins in and out.  |

Didn't mean to get anyone wound up on that last post There are several reason I don't like running boards. First off they are no good for off roading. They seem to catch tons of grit and dirt. And after taking them off I discovered that they weigh a good 75 pounds or so between the two. So the benefits for not having them on out weigh the benifits for having them on. I do miss the lights though. |

And back on topic.... I saw an ALL white "mon" X the other day...

 I agree with the Lack of color choices on the X's. I am a total green fan and tried real hard to love the 2 choices I was given...NOT! My husband and drove all over southeastern Wisconsin looking at colors as it is hard to tell from that tiny circle. I loved the Mineral Grey but even on the Eddie Bauer it was to monotone.....My heart leapt at the Dark Toreador Red which was only available on the F350's.  I finally chose the Black Eddie Bauer. She is awesome looking. With the Arizona Beige contrast on the exterior, those dark, dark, windows and two/tone Med Parchment leather interior,,,WOW what a head turner...I do feel like a Princess everytime I get behind the wheel.
PS: I love the running boards, especially the lights in the evening. Without them I'd need to take a running start to get inside and wearing a skirt to the office would be a big NO NO. My passengers love them also in addition to the hand rails, even my senior neighbor can enter and exit easily. Happy Easter! |
