Pickup Ramp Hauls Two ATV's At A Time
"It eliminates the need to haul a second ATV on a trailer," says inventor C.J. Welte.
The new ramp system consists of a 56 by 65-in. steel platform that fits into a pickup receiver hitch (Class III or IV). Two self-contained steel ramps run from the ground up to the platform. You drive the first ATV onto the pickup bed and secure it. Then drive the second ATV onto the platform and secure it. The ramps slide under the platform.
"It eliminates the hassle of using a trailer and is a lot safer to use than conventional ramps," says Welte. "The ramps are positively held in place directly to the platform so there's no chance of them falling out from under you. Another advantage is that it lets you carry an ATV even if your pickup has a topper on it. There's no need to remove the tailgate.
"I've used the unit on both 1/2-ton and 3/4-ton pickups to carry two ATV's more than 6,000 miles."
Sells for $500.
