I tend to get a quad in the bed of my truck as well a couple on a trailer. Right now I am working on making my 8' x 5' into a 12' x 5' so I can have two front to back or three side be side.

I do want to mention that my Dad has tipped his wheeler when he was unloading from his truck, and he even said that he was going about it all wrong (Mostly being careless). So, just keep your mind on what your doing and don't do anything stupid.

Oh, and in the picture that I have attached. This trailer is my good friends. If we put his kawi 300 on it, the damn thing weighs it down enough to rub the tires on the frame. Thats why it ends up in the bed of my truck.

I use a truck bed, and Quad Boss folding ramps. They come with bumper sinch straps to keep the ramps from sliding out from under you while you are loading and unloading. Pros...no trailer to store when not in use. Cons..not much room for other gear once wheeler and ramps are loaded.

Thanks for the replies it is a homemade deal with some spare steel and checkerplate that was lying around. Keeps the weight on the bed and hitch as checkerplate bridges from steel tubing to bed.

That is carpet in the bed. It is a "BedRug" and now Mopar offers it as an accessory direct from them I had it in a 03 Chevy SS Pickup and loved it so did the same thing this time around holds up well to anything I do and is easy on the knees and nothing slides around all ++'s in my books.

Most of the time It goes into the back of the pickup. Good old 2x12 boards for ramps, with some 8" carriage bolts in them secures them to the truck when placed between the bed and the bumper.
