A ramp is provided for use with vehicles having tailgates. The ramp is attached to the tailgate. The ramp is capable of folding into a bed of the vehicle and against the tailgate when not in use, and is folded away from the vehicle and the tailgate to extend toward the ground or other loading surface for use. A hinge controls the movement of the device relative to the tailgate of the vehicle to allow the device to be pivoted into position for use, and to be pivoted into the storage position against the tailgate.
