Really nice looking steps. Don't think our dogs would ever even try using a doggie door, was it hard to teach your dog to use it?

Thanks, it was easy to train the dog, they are a little skeptical to start but once they try they get the hang of it. Having access to the outside at anytime makes it easy. My previous dog learned too.

Hey Bduck those are some awesome looking steps and great looking doggy door. I at times wouldn't mind turning the furnace up as I have a severe case of type 2 diabetes and get a little cold at times. But for the most part I still sleep without blankets or sheets and handle the 66-67 we keep our thermostat at through the winter.

BTW I'm jealous of your truck. I want a good 73L Ford Superduty

I got curious and looked on youtube, found same exact old step as mine and a new one built with pressure treated 2x6" with composite.
I'm a diabetic also but not yet on meds to treat it just watching my intake. I have a warming blanket I use when watching TV, the warmth puts me in a state of napping. 

I have owned that Superduty truck going on 20yrs now. My wife told me to go buy a new one 2yrs ago but didn't want one, this one had the perfect drivetrain and engine. Maintaining it is cheaper than a $75G truck. She took advantage of getting a new vehicle since I didn't. She stole my Dodge Nitro for trade-in that I inherited from my brother who passed away buying a 2017 Buick Enclave. She told me I got a new vehicle too, her hand me down 2005 Cadillac Escalade.    I won't be letting go of my Superduty anytime soon, hopefully.
