does anyone have the 2-quad atv pickup caddy that rear-loads for a short bed pickup? Any info on how you like it would help.

Yup, I do, and I love it. Mine is a long bed, but I didn't want to buy a side-loader, as I was worried that it would hit the dually fenders. Also, using the shortbed version allowed me to keep my toolbox in the bed.
Quality: Excellent! CowTown Technologies (the makers of the ATV Pickup Caddy) have been a great company to work with. Weighs about 120 pounds, and is removed with 4 bolts. No safety issues or concerns with the rack. I had the 8-foot ramps, and while my 4x4 wasn't a problem, it was difficult to load my wife's 4x2. Part of the problem is that the F-350 dually (with 4-inch lift blocks stock from the factory) is one of the tallest, if not THE tallest, stock trucks on the market. I spent some time talking to Cowtown Technologies, and they sent (free) an additional set of ramps initially. They helped, but it was still an issue. So they have now developed a set of 12-foot ramps, and they work great. We have no more problems loading the 4x2. Here are some pictures of a group of us at Hatfield/McCoy, and pictures of my truck (including loading the quads) are dispersed throughout the pictures. Mine is the black truck, and the red one has a different type of rack. Also, these pictures are of the 8-foot ramps, which should work fine for most trucks. Email me for more detailed questions or info. Also, check them out at www.atvpickupcaddy.com
