Although a step like the # B75300 Bestop TrekStep isn't available for the Tundra, we do have options that would work great for you.

If you don't mind stepping over the tailgate, you can use a Hitch Mounted Step like part # CARR183252. The step mounts in a 2 inch receiver hitch, and features a fold down non-slip step. The step is constructed of powder coated aluminum so you won't need to worry about it rusting.

If you're wanting something that would work with the tailgate open, a hitch mounted swing away extendable step like part # HE4037 would be a good choice. The step extends out far enough that it can be sued with the tailgate lowered, as you can see in the linked video.
