Best 2019 Toyota Tacoma Hitch Steps

I am 67 with well used knees so climbing up and down from the truck bed was very difficult and not very safe. I received these stairs and popped them on the hitch. I have a Ridgeline so I could open the tailgate from the side and it cleared the step with plenty of room so I could use both steps. I climbed up and climbed down with no real effort and felt more than safe from falling or injuring a knee. It is small enough and light enough to put in the bed storage box so it is was the perfect solution to my problem of getting into and out of the truck bed.

Great product for a reasonable price - works as advertized and very strong. Etrailer's customer service was beyond compare - an email was sent to me at every step of the shipping process, and they upgraded me to a superior shipping speed at no extra cost. Great company to deal with and great pricing.

This is a quality piece, for sure, will do the job as intended. I didn't use it in the conventional way, I needed a step on the side of my aluminum-bodied 2017 Ford F250, so I had to make a customized weldment-bracket modification to my truck, and came up with what you see in the photo.

Do not buy a locking pin. I bought one and after almost a year could not fit key in. Had to rent a truck as time was of the essence.

Nice looking bumper step, not too large and no interference with the vehicle backup sensors. Lower step for access to storage and also protection for the bumper from other cars that get too close.

My wife wanted something that would help her step into our Travato motorhome via the back door. It's built on a RAM Promaster and entering through the back doors requires a pretty good step up to get in. When I saw the BumpStep, it looked like it would make getting in easier, so I figured I'd give it a try. It arrived this morning, took about five minutes to install using the included hardware and it works even better than expected. The only thing you need to install is a 15/16" socket. The step is super sturdy and makes it so much easier to step in and out of the van through the back doors. Would highly recommend.

It is all plactic with medal inserts where the holes are that the hitch lock goes through. The bolt they sent was to short. Just a peice of junk for $[XX] bucks. It will not last long.

Love it, great strong step. Needed little grinding on nuts that hold main plate to tongue assembly, they are too close to hitch entry point, make assembly wider! Pin hole barely lined up due to nuts hitting hitch and after grinding nuts slightly hole was barely lined up. Chamfered leading edge of my locking pin and drove it in with hammer, will have to drive out to tow so pain if its on an off a-lot. Gives it a tight e rattle free fit tho! Don’t expect slip on from package, needs fitting..

It has worked very well. Very pleased with the product. My kids now have an easier time stepping up into the back of my land cruiser. My only "complaint" is that it doesn't fit perfectly tight in the hitch and will rotate very slightly. But, I have never had a problem with it rattling when I drive. Would definitely purchase again.

Very good quality nice looking product. Just by the looks and feel of it you can tell this will last

Excellent product! Installed on my Ranch Hand bumper 2” receiver hitch. Makes it easy to check engine fluids.

Packaged in a box with another boxed item. Not much done to protect it. Seems fine and the quality is fine.

Nicely fabricated with a quality black powder-coated finish. Good value for the money. Does exactly what we wanted it to do for accessing the contents of the box with tailgate up.

We have a 2019 Honda ridgeline and as my wife says, she is vertically challenged only being 5’1” tall. So I decided to order this step to help her as needed when she wanted to get up in the back of the truck. It works great for that and I like the reflector factor for the back of the truck, anything that helps being rear ended by some fool driver. The only down side is that it isn’t as tight in the 2” x 2” trailer hook up as I would like to see, but that’s a small deal.

Excellent product. The spring in the step is still tight, so after one year it is still sturdy and not at all loose or shaky. It does what I need it to do, and at night adds a bit more visibility to my Jeep from the rear. My one complaint and the reason it doesn't get a fifth star, is that I had a similar step before which I sheared off while off roading, which had a single hole for the pin the appropriate standard depth. This step has two holes, which gives more flexibility on how deep they can be locked in inside the hitch receiver. But neither one is the perfect depth. One is too far, the other is about 0.5cm too close, so the step isn't completely in my hitch receiver. This does not affect the functionality or stability at all, but visually it doesn't look perfect.

It arrived a day early! Bolted right on in a few minutes, the nuts are set in, so no need for a wrench on them, just the bolt. I run without a tailgate as I put my bicycles in the back so this step is PERFECT. I have a slide in camper, so, no tailgate. I pull a fifth wheel, so, no tailgate. Step on the step, then the bumper and safely into the truck. I already had the hitch, so this bolt on step makes the costs low.

The mounting hardware was loose in shipping box. I know it's made to mount to a reese hitch, but I installed it onto a kurt hitch seems to work well and is a quality product.

Hitch is decent but delivery took forever. Very uncharacteristic of etrailer

The CARR hitch step was exactly as advertised. It fits into the hitch with very little play and will allow me to get to the ladder and on to the top of of my RV. The CARR step is very well made and should last a good long time. I decided on the reflective design to show when the step is closed. I'm hoping it isn't too bright for someone behind me with headlights on. If I had to do it over, I would choose one of CARR's designs instead. One more thing, Etrailer.com was a great decision for my shopping. The order was shipped and delivered in a very timely fashion. I would give Etrailer.com a five star!

Excellent Hitch Step. Looks great when not in use, and is very functional when a step is needed. Highly recommend

Nice, heavy duty with American Flag rubberized like a small bumper... It matches my logo for my company which has the American flag design.

Exactly what I needed. Does not add to the overall length of my pickup so i can still park in the garage when weather threatens. ROck sold step. Everone I worked with was great. Excellent response and follow up.

It fits our 2017 Transit 150 van, with a Curt hitch from etrailer, perfectly. From the pics you will see it looks like it was designed for this vehicle. It cuts the factory distance to the step bumper in half. My old knees like it. My shins like. . .love the fold up position. Step is big enough that you can hit it stepping around a load in the van. Provides solid footing even when stepping off center. Two issues: 1) The price. A bit steep compared to price of a hitch. But if it helps save my knees it's worth it. 2) The mount is loose in the hitch receiver. Has a tendancy to wobble. Concerned about this surprising others. So I took a 7/8" id flat washer and cut it down to 2" wide with flats on oposite sides. I put it in from the front of the receiver and wedged it under the step mount. This stablized the step. And when it comes time to remove the step I'll be pulling it away from the washer, undoing the wedge.

It’s a great step not too big and not too small and it looks great.

Work great as a step for getting in and out of my work truck.

It's not as long a hitch insert as I desired but, it does help get in my bed while the tailgate is open, just have to watch my shin stepping up and in. You can assemble it so it's a bit longer/shorter inserted. Glad it came with it's own holding pin.

Works great

Fits perfectly. Matches my existing side Grip steps. It's easier to drill holes for the end cap screws than to try and make them tap themselves.

The step is great. Welds are very professional. I would say the instructions need to be clearer. It has you putting the end caps on the step first , which should be your last step. You should assemble the plate and hitch 4 bolts and fasteners. Then loosely assemble the side supports (4 bolts and fasteners)so the step slides between the plate and end supports. Tighten the the end supports down. This holds the step in place otherwise its a loose mess waiting to come off. Lastly, attach the endcaps with screws. The video literally states the step is sandwiched between the plate and side supports, but following the 3 step instructions , you will not achieve this result. Please review your instructions.

So far this product installed just as described and looks heavy duty enough to last.

It works great, just don't forget it's there, I used it to get in the bed the first time and got off my tailgate I forgot to use it, hit my shin nice welt. But if you actually use it, it works. So just don't forget like I did.

Not a fan. It wobbles and sags. Not a very good level platform to stand on. Slipped twice and put it away. Too late for a return now.

The ball and mount look robust but when put together there is a lot of movement in the fit. I would expect a hitch and pieces that are rated at 20,000 lbs. to be a tighter fit.
