    Thumbs down Wrecked; while loading

    Damn, be real careful usin those ramps u make out of those aluminum pieces and wood. I kinda screwed up cause my driveway was real slick cause of soap from washin my truck ...

    this is what happened

    I was halfway up the ramp and my back tires were spinnin like crazy, ... so I went back down the ramps ... rev rev go ... half way up again and tires are spinnin again, ... I say f it and give it some more gas, I knew this was gonna happen, the tires caught and kicked the ramps out. Now the back tires just DROP. Luckily I pushed off the pegs and kinda kicked out and the quad was left standin against my tailgate.

    Time to get some good ramps.

    That sucks, reminds me of a stupid story though. I was at my friends track and we were all leavin. One of my buddies was tryin to ride into the back of his truck but couldn't make it. Of course I flicked him some crap about being a wuss. I make a run at my truck and up my ramps, hit my wheel wells, and smash there goes my backwindow. Made me look stupid (not the first time)
    I need to ride $@%! bad o-meter

    Next time put your ramps in grass instead of on concrete....I had this happen w/ my timberwolf when I trieds this on gravel, luckily it just stood str8 up and didn't flip over. I just put it in reverse and tried again.

    I always just push mine up the ramps. My mom loaded her sled and put the skis through the window and mangled the cab so for the effort it takes i think its safer.

    Okay, here is what you do!

    Get some old snowmobile trax and put them on your ramps.... if you cant figure it out, well I think you better get checked in...

    And heres an idea for easy loads and unloads, what you do is make a dirt ramp your truck or trailor can back up too... its a lot easier and it doesn't move, we have them every where we ride!

    my uncle was loading his sleds onto his trailer and stuck the throttle right open and somehow landed on top of the truck roof, we all had a good laugh and watched him get it off, i think he hit the front of the trailor sending him in the air and on top of the truck roof.
