How do you get your bike on the truck?
I want to use ramps, and they can either rest on the bed or on the folded-down
tailgate. Problem #1 is I can't get these ramps to rest on the bed because the
rear bumper gets in the way. I could get extra-long boards, but I'd rather
not. Problem #2 is that I'm afraid the rubber tailgate "arms" will break under
the weight of over 500-700 lbs, leaving me w/a nicely disfigured tailgate from
where it smashes into the bumper. Most likely the rubber arms wouldn't snap,
but they might slip out of the metal clasps.
