ABSTRACT:
An improved vehicle ramp is formed to eliminate interference between the vehicle spoilers and the ramp by extending the ramp when assembled such that the ramp has a lesser angled or sloped inclined surface. The improved vehicle ramp is further formed to eliminate ramp sliding as the vehicle is driven onto and up the ramp. Finally, the improved vehicle ramp eliminates knifing into the ground under loading. The improved vehicle ramp includes a base ramp with a base plate under its vertical edge. The improved vehicle ramp further includes a ramp extension secured to the base of the base ramp incline, and a ramp transition secured between the ramp extension and base ramp for providing a lesser sloped incline with a gradual entrance angle. The ramp extension, ramp transition, and base plate from two improved vehicle ramps are packageable in a compact nature for shipping, display and storage.
