5th Gen step in height

[Gsch108]

Does the 5th gen have a higher step in height then the 4th gen ? If so approx how much ?

It might be slightly higher step in height but can't be much higher. My wife has a hard time getting our 1 year old in the back seat of it but she is only 5.1 It doesn't bother me thats why we bought her a Rav4 instead of a 4runner.

thanks, because I hate the running boards, my wife is 5'7 and no kids so should be fine, thanks again

Wife is 5'2, very hard for her to get in, have to give her a boost sometimes! Keep waiting for decent running boards or sliders that does require mods.

steps

the sliders don't arreat to assist with entry, they are angled upwards, they appear more for keeping the rockers from being damaged during off roading, just a guess by looking at the photos, and the nerf bars seem to stick way out and look terrible, if anyone comes across steps that they like please post photo's and/or info !

The EOM running board looks kind of nice but definitely didn't make for off road purpose, it takes away some of ground clearance.

FYI, my wife is 5'1 and has no problems getting in and out of our new SR5 (no running boards).
