I ordered this ramp direct from DGRP and had it shipped to a friend in sarnia ON. I crossed the border and brought it home with no issues. I did pay fill price which is right around 1800 CAN at the time if purchase. I bought it with the specific intension of quickly heading north to catch a fresh snow fall with short notice. And i love the idea of leaving the trailer home. One person can remove this ramp, no install required. You can move it between trucks by simply carrying it. Less tolls, no trailer tires or bearings to worry about.
Some day ill get a sled deck for a long bed but currently with a short bed, i think this will work great for me. You can use it in the same way with a 4 wheeler which im really looking forward to. It will greatly speed up moving my quad between properties.
If you have any questions feel free to ask. When we get some ridable trails ill have it put to work.
If anyone has any questions or comments or you just want to say hello, feel free to email me at Greatlakespowerstrokefx4@gmail.com

Where’s the strap to secure to the hitch
It wasnt included but its not a bad idea. Not sure that is required. Considered you are only driving it up the inline but good point i havent used one.
How do you secure it
So the first thing ill openly complain about is why dont pickup beds have several strong forms of securement already installed? But you should have 4 metal loops, one per corner. Best bet is to have at least one strap pulling forward and another though the grab bar and to the two back loops pulling down and in.
Or run 4 separate straps doing the same thing
@greatlakespowerstrokefx4 thinking about gettin this ramp but you'd think they would have a system in place to secure your sled
@@ivanhamlyn so there are a few eyes at the front of the ramp. You could secure the sled to the ramp. Same with the back, there are exposed support tubes you could strap to.
That would hold sled to ramp.
But you need to hold ramp to truck. So my theory is go sled to truck.
Most people do like 60-70 mph highway on up to go ride. For that id recommend front and rear securement. If you are driving down the road or just taking aide roads to your trail head you could just throw one strap on the front and that would be fine.
Right now, sledding for me is 180-250 miles depending on where i go. So a few extra min of securement means i really dont have to worry about it back there.
Now we just need a decent winter. I dont know how yours is but i took early trails for granted thinking ok trails would improve with time. Ok trails ended up being the only trails we had and then it all was gone late feb lol
@greatlakespowerstrokefx4 wow sounds like you have a short riding season, I live in Labrador so we usually start riding in November till may and every second March we have the Cains Quest snowmobile endurance race 🏁 maybe you've heard of it, I can't imagine having to put my sled away in February that's depressing lol, but yeah I'm just wondering not if that ramp will work with a 2024 BRP Expedition se 20 wide it's not a light sled haha! Awesome video by the way
