Abstract
A running board system is provided for the light truck market, where a beam of the running board is removable to double as a ramp. For example, a single one of these beams can be used to guide a motorcycle onto a truck bed, or alternatively a pair of these removable beams can be used to provide a ramp for guiding a two wheel cart (e.g., hand truck), four wheel vehicle, or snowmobile onto the truck bed. Optionally, the beam includes lockable storage and/or includes brackets for securement of the beam(s) to the truck's tailgate when used as a ramp.
