I am looking to add side steps to my truck and do not like the traditional tubular steps so I was looking at either the N-Fab or Go Rhino Dominator line. Also, I usually prefer the look of black powder coated side step but not sure if I should go with the stainless steel. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I am also attaching a picture of my truck.

Love my nfab's with the bed access step to get into my tool box. Mine were black powdercoat which looked great, but i had them linex'd shortly after installing them to prevent rust and give a little grip as well. Have seen a few stainless nfab's in my area lately, i think the black powdercoat looks much, much better than the stainless

Nastas are stainless and I've been very happy with mine. Iirc they do have Black stainless as well. All their hardware/bolts/brackets are SS as well which if you are worried about rust like me, is a huge advantage.

I got mine from Aries and both the polished and black ones are made from stainless. I got mine black because I plan to colormatch them soon. Guess I better update my sig with a pic of them on. :)

The power steps fail in snowy/cold weather up here. I've seen a lot of trucks with the steps not retracted. I spoke with a dealer and they said they get packed with snow/ice and the motor tears itself apart trying to retract them.

I agree, if I was in a warmer location, I'd look into them, but bars work for me. :)

I've got the 6 step N-fabs on my PW. They're great steps,but N-Fab needs to adjust their welding jig.Both rear mounting brackets were a 1/2 hole off,so I had to use a die grinder to open up the holes on the body of the truck to mount them.
After talking to the dealer,he said that they are that way on every set that they have ever sold for a Ram.

powerboards seem expensive, but very cool. If I already didn't have the mopar's on mine, I might have to buy a set.
