ATV Ramp Fits Receiver Hitch
"We made our first prototype hitch-mounted ATV last year and we tested that unit every which way for ten months," says Ed Bergen of Bergen Industries. The result is a sturdy pickup-mounted rack that is strong enough to load the biggest ATV's and, on short box trucks, carry the back end on road trips.
  "The rack mounts onto any standard 2-in. hitch," says Bergen. "The two ramps fold up and lock to keep the ATV from rolling of the back during transport."
  On the short box truck, the front two wheels rest on the pickup bed and the back two wheels on Ramp Rack. The rack can support up to 1,200 lbs. more than enough for half an ATV load. And with the ATV at the back of the box - on a short or long bed truck- there's plenty of storage space in front of the ATV for hunting, camping or farming supplies.
  "We constructed the ramp out of steel tubing so it's light and strong," says Bergen. "It weighs only 175 lbs. The Ramp Rack also has side and taillights that hook up to the truck's trailer lighting harness."
  The Bregen Ramp Rack sells for $615 (U.S.).
