Zusammenfassung:A folding or collapsible step platform and ladder mounts onto the frame of a semi-truck adjacent the engine and front wheel of the truck. The step platform is pivotally mounted to a base which mounts to the frame. A ladder is pivotally mounted to the end of the step platform opposite the base. The base elevates the step platform so that, when the step platform is deployed and rotated to a horizontal position, the step platform crosses over the wheel without interference with the wheel. When in that horizontal position the length of the step platform positions the outboard end of the step platform to an outside of the wheel so that, when the ladder is pivoted downwardly from the outboard end of the step platform and the step platform is horizontal, the ladder hangs so as to cross downwardly over the outside of the wheel ready for use.
