When I went looking for a ATV ramp, I went to several dealers in the Denver area and all had the same 40" wide ramp. I argued with one dealer that the stock SP500 tires extend out to 45" inches wide and this ramp was too narrow to comfortably go up and out of a high pickup bed. He thought I was crazy and just stated "we use this ramp all the time...". I bought the ramp because I needed one that day. In this day of product liability, I can't see why a manufacturer would produce a 40" ramp. I've since seen several ramps much wider on the web.
I use a 6 x 10 BigTex Trailer to haul 2 ATV's. I had to cut out the rail on the front left-hand side to load the front ATV from the side. The load balance is fine and it works great.

Short narrow ramps are dangerous. Not only are the short ramps steep, the momentum required can be unnerving.
I was at Northern Supply the other day and there was a man and his son looking at ramps and buying the cheapest ones that he could find. I told him about the benefits of the larger ramps but he didn't seem to care and picked out the short ones.
Which I later saw him putting in a Chevy K1500.
Good luck. I hope the quad doesn't fall on the kid. It's too late for the father.
Buy the longest ramps & widest (preferably curved) ramps that will fit in the truck once the quad is loaded. Just my 2.37 cents woth.
