Loading ramps
What kind of loading ramps are you guys using, my truck is lifted and i dont trust a wooden plank, so i'm on the market for one, i would like a wide one that is the width of the tailgate.

RE: Loading ramps
I've got a 3 piece aluminum arched one, 18 inch middle and 12 inch sides. I think they are about 7' or 8' long. They all hook together so they dont slide around. It works great and I couldn't see ever needing a different one. If your truck is lifted you definitely want to look at the arched ones, you will scrape the bottom otherwise.

RE: Loading ramps
I got mine from a shop in houston that a friend worked at. I can't remember the brand but they are all over the internet. I believe the retail price on mine was around $260. I can't remeber the brand ramp that I really liked, but there are lots of them out there. You could probably find a decent deal on ebay, but you are probably going to pay around $300 for a decent one. They also have single piece folding ones and 3 piece folding ones. Look around and decide what you want. I definitely recommend a wide, arched, aluminum one, unless you dont care about being able to put your feet down while riding into the back of your truck. Also check the weight rating, most are rated for at least 750 lbs per rail, and your bike plus you are going to be about that.
