Holds up to 1600 lbs. Thats gonna be pushing the limit with both my quads. I'm guessing with full tanks I'm at about 870 lbs each. One would work......if i got a divorce.....or my wife has me bumped off[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Pretty neat idea. The way the way the ramps are connected on seems very secure but for me I'd be worried about loosing a machine while rolling down the highway no matter how well I strapped it. I suppose you'd get used to it after a while though.

I have another brand of quad rack that holds 2 quads very well. I dont think I would want to put both my quads on this style of rack. It looks like all the weight is on the bed rails. You also really need to have a 3/4 ton pickup in order for this type of rack to be safe.

I've seen those before and I wonder just how badly they affect CG? I can't imagine doing any sort of emergency maneuver at highway speed with 1600 pounds sitting on top of the bed rails and over the rear axle.

I saw it when you first posted and could have replied, but I have a topper on my truck and a mattress inside. What could I say? Not enough headroom? I can't use anything that goes in or on the back of the truck like that. But I'll bump you up to the top of the forum.

I'd be afraid to roll the truck with all that weight up so high anyway. I already rolled a new SUV, a van, a snowmobile, and a couple of quads. I don't need anything to put me in even more danger.
