Let's get into what to look for when choosing electric running boards for your truck or SUV.
 

Uses for Electric Running Boards

Electric running boards are designed to help people step into tall vehicles. They are also popular for their appearance.
Electric running boards are installed beneath the side doors and between the front and back wheel wells. They come standard on some trucks and SUVs. Electric running boards are made from several manufacturers for specific models or they can be custom made. There are different lengths of electric running boards and they are made with different materials and unique styles.
 

Styles of Electric Running Boards

Electric running boards come in many styles, including cab-length, bed, wheel-to-wheel, and full flare. Your choice may depend on your need to climb or reach into certain parts of the vehicle, or how the electric running boards look.
Let's take a look at the style options available for vehicle electric running boards.
1. Cab-length electric running boards-These stretch from the front wheel well to the rear of the cab section on an SUV or truck. They are the cheapest and maybe the most efficient type of electric running board.
2. Bed electric running board-These fill in the space between a cab-length electric running board and the rear wheel well. Usually, they are purchased by people whose vehicles already have electric running boards and need help to reach into the bed of a truck.
3. Wheel-to-wheel electric running boards-These go between the front and back wheel wells and give a smoother look than using a combination of bed and cab electric running boards.
4. Full flare electric running boards-These are custom made and are designed to transition seamlessly into the body of the vehicle.

 

Nerf Bars

An alternative to electric running boards is nerfing bars, which serve the same function as a step-up to get into the vehicle. They are the same lengths as electric running boards. Nerf bars are not platforms like electric running boards but instead are cylindrical in shape. Usually made from aluminum or steel, they have hard rubber foot pads that help increase traction and prevent slipping. Nerf bars tend to be seen as creating a sleeker, sportier look than electric running boards.
 

Lighted Electric Running Boards

Some electric running boards come with lights to help people see the step in the dark and add safety and convenience. The lights come on when the vehicle's doors are opened.
 

Model Specific and Custom made electric running boards

We can tell you if there are electric running boards for your vehicle's make and model. Generally a little more expensive, custom-made electric running boards can be designed to your specific preferences.
Once you have chosen the style of your electric running board, next you need to consider what materials you want it to be made of.
 

Materials For Electric Running boards

Electric running boards are made from aluminum, stainless steel, fiberglass or ABS plastic. Aluminum and steel are more durable and can have different finishes but fiberglass and plastic can be painted to match the vehicle. Textures and patterns on electric running boards help prevent slipping.
 
Aluminum electric running boards-These have a metallic look and are not painted but it can be finished to look like chrome. They can have grooves running longwise or have a textured cover applied, both prevent slipping. These sturdy aluminum electric running boards come in two types:
Diamond plate aluminum-pattern molded improves traction and prevents slipping.
Extruded aluminum-smooth, without any textured patterns.
Fiberglass electric running boards-These are lightweight but can increase durability with a steel plate on the underside. They can be painted to match the color of the truck or SUV.
Stainless Steel electric running boards-These are the most durable options and come in a variety of styles, some even look like chrome.
ABS Plastic electric running boards-These are made from a less expensive but strong plastic. It may not last as long as aluminum and steel but like fiberglass, it can be painted to match the vehicle's
