Sports bucket seat + Running board
Hi Guys,
How do you guys get in and out of a GLE350 with Sports bucket seat + Running board ?
In a typical ML/GL truck, you can slide in and out pretty easy.. I never had a running board installed in my previous cars,
I am 5'10 and this gets pretty cumbersome as the running board is so narrow to step on and the bucket seat also gets in the way when you try to slide your butt in...
Just wondering....

Totally agree with you. It's hard to use running boards and your pants are constantly getting dirty rubbing against them. The bolsters on the sport seats wear out prematurely from the constant rubbing against them with exit and entrance from the car.

Don't even try stepping on the running boards when they're wet...!!
