Installation is usually pretty straightforward, especially with the right tools! Most kits come with clear instructions, and it shouldn’t take more than a couple of hours.
If you’re going for style and function, I suggest the Bully brand. They look sleek on the Traverse and have held up really well. No sagging or issues so far.
Bully’s do look nice! Just be cautious of the weight limits, as I noticed some of their models could use a little extra support.
Running boards are such a great upgrade! Besides the practicality, they give your Traverse a more rugged look. Plus, you can find some hilarious designs if you want to turn heads!
I highly recommend running boards for the Traverse! They make getting in and out so much easier, especially for kids and older adults. Plus, they add a nice look to the vehicle!
Absolutely! My mom has mobility issues, and since we added running boards, she feels much more secure getting in and out!
Running boards also provide a bit of extra safety as they help prevent slipping when entering or exiting the vehicle. Definitely worth considering!
It’s great to hear they helped your mom, Samantha! I’ve seen them assist our neighbors who have small kids too; it’s a game-changer during rainy days.
Does anyone have specific brands they recommend? I’m looking for something durable because I have a lot of family members using the car.
I got mine from a local shop, and they installed them for free! I think they were from a well-reviewed brand too. They look fantastic on my Traverse!
I’m curious, what kind of features should I look for in running boards? I want something functional but also stylish.
Definitely look for slip-resistant surfaces and sturdy mounts. Safety is key, especially if kids are involved!
I wonder if running boards would really hold up in harsh winter conditions? It might be worth checking customer reviews for that.
Good point! My previous set did rust during winter, but the new ones seem more robust. Always read the reviews!
I just hope they don’t end up being a tripping hazard! But I guess if you choose the right style, that shouldn’t be a problem.
