I hear you tompat42. At 6'5 I share in your experience. I too had the same problem as DDLY, especially when wearing a suit...that is until I started stepping directly onto the runningboard. Initially, was scared it wouldnt hold my weight 240, but it did without hesitation. In any event it takes a bit getting used to. Some models have a "comfort feature" whereby the vehicle will actually lower itself during the entry/egress process - this can be set by scrolling throught the controls on the steering wheel. I'm glad I kept the running boars as they are visually appealing and functional nonetheless.
