ABSTRACT:
The invention includes a step device for assisting entry into and/or exit from a vehicle such as, for example, high road clearance truck. The step device comprises a generally “W” shaped bar which is separable into said two generally “U” shaped elements for easier packaging, shipping and manipulation of the device. Each of the “U” shaped elements include a cross-bar fixedly attached between, and spanning across, an interior of the generally “U” shaped element. The cross-bars are configured for separately mounting to the vehicle such that the generally “U” shaped elements are independently supported and the generally “U” shaped elements may be adjustable to multiple angles with respect to said vehicle.
