With so many running boards in the market these days, it is no surprise that the regular running board buyer becomes so overwhelmed with so many choices. A seasoned truck owner would be immediately able to tell the difference between each model but for the new buyers, it’s a difficult task. One thing every buyer would like though is having things becoming automated and that’s where you’ll find the beauty of Amp research power steps. Being the industry standard in making automated truck steps, it’s definitely the choice for people who like to have the benefits of a truck step but would prefer to keep it low profile.

So what’s the deal about all this Amp research power step hype? The technology on this particular truck step is simple: it has built in motion sensors that allow it to detect when the door is open, allowing it to pull itself down when needed. It’s also slimmer, allowing itself to retract when not needed which means you won’t be losing any ground clearance as well. So when you stop and open the door, the powerstep extends for you to step on and when the door is closed and you’re driving, it’ll look as if it was never there.

Even though the surface is slimmer than the standard oval nerf bar, you’ll find it to still be as strong as any other running board in the market. It also has the same slip resistant surface the other step boards have and as a bonus, becomes fully illuminated when extended which is very useful when you’re driving out of town.

The Amp research powerstep also doesn’t fall back too far in terms of design that in fact, it’s way ahead of the game. It gives the primary functions of a running board that you’ll ever need while keeping your truck in the same shape as before. What’s more, when the door opens, the power steps extend, giving your vehicle a knack of technology, improving style, fascinating jealous eyes of regular truck step owners.

Even though it has mechanical components, you won’t find it breaking any time soon as the Amp research step has a very scratch resistant surface and waterproof surface, which will give you no trouble in maintenance. And if your unit breaks within an unexpected time frame, you won’t need to worry as Amp research power steps have extended warranties you won’t find in the usual mechanical accessory. Installation is also easy as you’ll receive a manual with all the instructions including wiring and mounting of the power step.
