I didn't think of skateboard ramps. That one is only 24" wide, though - it would require very careful driving to get on it without falling. I calculate the slope at just less than 21 degrees.

I was looking at handicap access ramps for a while. But since most of them are rated for somewhere around 600 pounds load, they all weighed too much.
