Diesel-Gypsy,
You are right. there are two platforms, one pallot sized and one small one at the top. It is a little narrow but usable since it will fit through the door easily.

I thought maybe your fine addition was capable of covering the ugly steps. I always thought that is an eye sore on our good looking RVs... they should be able to make a cover for them that also doubles as a platform like yours.. I am too far from my home shop to do much experimenting but maybe some day. Maybe a cover that folds down to allow the steps to fold out.
Happy camping,
John
