Did this guy actually say that an advantage to retractable boards is that ya won't high center the truck on them when off road?? I always thought the big problem with stepping over rocks was smashing and bending the side steps. The smart switch over ride is potentially slick while generally annoying but makes me wonder what the board does if ya forget to push it when opening the door to see how stuck ya are. As in: board tries to travel 6" but only has 2" of clearance. Likely some sort of torque limiting built in but stripping the plastic gear box seems possible. see also: the blend door motor problems FCAs are known for.
