Assist Handles Your vehicle may have assist handles to be used when getting out of your vehicle. If your vehicle has assist handles, they may be located above the front passenger door if you have a regular cab, or above the front and rear passenger doors if you have an extended cab or crew cab. If your vehicle is equipped with roof-mounted side impact air bags, there will be assist handles located above both the driver's and front passenger's doors. Bed Rails {CAUTION: If your vehicle has bed rails, they are there for appearance only. If you try to tie down a load with them, or to secure things in your truck, not only can it damage the bed rails, but the load can loosen. This could cause injury to you or others. Secure loads by using the cargo tie-down loops, inside the truck bed area. Rear Storage Area If your vehicle is an extended cab model, it may be equipped with storage compartments under the rear seats. 2-45
