Apparently I have too much time on my hands and it’s definitely time for some Pineapple Pizza!!!

here are some pictures to get an idea of how big the step into the cab will be. Some show a person standing by the door as a reference.

I think I am a little confused. Is the picture above that shows 27" a sasquatch? Because I thought the one measured to the bottom of the door was a sasquatch but there appears to be a 2" difference between these two pictures?

I have to admit, I'm 6' and I use the step to get into my F-150. I can do it without the step, but its easier with it. Maybe because I'm 65. Far easier getting in and out of an F-150 or my future Bronco than in my corvette. Impossible getting out of a vehicle when your ass in the seat is lower than your knees when you put your feet on the ground to get out. That's why I'm selling the corvette and getting the Bronco.

The BL on 33's should be about an inch higher than my truck, so my 5'6" 66 yo wife and I are getting steps. Just like these on the SEMA Bronco

I agree that there seems to be some discrepancies between some of the measurements that I have seen

I think the black two door is supposed to be a non-Sasquatch model

it does appear to me that it looks like about a 3 inch difference between the floorboard and the bottom of the door when it is closed

Agreed, about a 3-4 inch difference. Trying to come up with a conclusion based on the two tape measure pictures. The cactus grey says it is a picture of a Sasquatch model and the top of the rock rail sits at about 20 inches. From the other picture, it looks like about 4-4.5 inch difference from top of rock rail to floorboard. So, I guess it is safe to assume about 24-24.5"? Although, it was posted earlier that it was 27". Would love to know if that is the case.

Those little steps do look nice. Almost wonder if you can get something like that for BD rock rails

Are those attached to the optional rock rails?

You can’t go by the door edge seem. The floor height is 2-3” higher than the door edge.

My thought is 3” to the floorboard by looking at other measurement pics. Again, don’t quote me :)

I was in Tennessee to see them. No measurements but looked like a feat for my 5’2” wife without amp boards . It could be done but she wouldn’t have any seat bolsters left in a short amount of time.

Ford should design their rock rail so a step(s) could be added when a person is not offloading. That way they we will not have to look at aftermarket options and they can make more money off they accessories. Maybe something with a nice 'Bronco' stamp, a horsey, or both.
