LastLong, I added 2 pics below showing the running boards of the X6, got a friend at the dealer, he is a service guy and has once told me that he has never seen a single owner getting off stepping on the boards and vice versa.. These things are really functional on the Land Rovers from my experience but not really on the X5 or X6. Good looks?? Well, I wouldn't mind if they were absent to tell the truth..
