Not terribly rare. They were just the bedside step to help reach things in the middle of the bed, or to climb into the bed from the side.

Rarity, Not that rare they show up often. There were aftermarket company's that made them too. You have to cut a hole in the side of your bed, normally towards the front, Like the titles says it a step. I sold an aftermarket pair here on the board for around $125

Puts some strain on the sheet metal when in use. I try not to use my set on my truck and trailer. But they are an Accessory so they have to be there.
