First of all, I love my running boards. I drove a new EXPY with fixed ones and although they are low maintenance I like how the power ones come down a little further, and they are cool! Unfortunately cool wears off when it seems like after going down any muddy, dusty dirt road for extended time, they start acting up. I end up having to assist them with my foot or hand, power wash and lube them up again. I feel I'm either not using the right stuff or not getting in the right area with the lube. Are others battling this issue as well? Does anyone have the "Ford engineer advice" of where is the most important areas to lube up and what product seems to be the best protect to use. I have pretty much used everything out there with same results. Maybe I have to come to the conclusion the "cool" ones need to stay on paved roads. Fire Away!!!
