The longest folding ramps we have for you is the Arched Loading Ramp Set part # 288-07432 for 1 or part # 288-07432-2 for 2 which are 90" long. The 90" length will ensure the angle that will be required to load the generator in your truck bed is not too steep. They are reasonably priced and very lightweight weighing in at only 23.5 lbs per ramp. The great thing about these ramps is that they have cam buckle safety straps that prevent the ramp from sliding out during loading and unloading.

Conner, what is that lifting device in your picture, where do I get it, and how much. It looks much better than ramps for loading household goods, generator,snow blower, etc. Wonder if it breaks down, so can transport with load and set up to unload at second location.

Any idea how hard it would be to wheel a 270 lb generator up a 10 foot ramp into a pickup? The ramp angle would be about 20 degrees.
