TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA – November 2019 – AMP Research, the leading manufacturer of automatic power articulating side steps, bed steps, and truck bed extenders, has announced the release of its PowerStep Smart Series electric running board for pickups and SUVs. The new PowerStep Smart Series is the latest innovation from Amp Research designed to put total control of the running boards right at your fingertips. Through the power of the Smart Series app, you can override the automatic functionality and command the steps to stay up or down, as well as control the integrated or auxiliary LED lighting right from your phone. And when you’re done, the Smart Series returns to normal automatic operations. The new PowerStep Smart Series electric running boards feature a precision-engineered design built with the highest quality materials for all-weather reliability. The step surface delivers rock solid stability via die-cast aluminum alloy supports while a highly-textured, powder coated step surface delivers maximum grip and durability. Because safety is constantly our focus, we incorporated pressure-sensitive, pinch-proof safety technology in the power-folding design and integrated a low-profile LED light system to provide the perfect amount of light, helping you in and out of your vehicle safely and with style. Best of all, the AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series is designed, manufactured and assembled in the U.S.A and includes the confidence of a 5-Year/ 60,000-Mile Warranty. About Truck Hero, Inc.
