Default how do you store your ramps on the bed?

Was wondering how you guys have your ramps stored in your bed. I saw the new setup on the 2015 f150 and really like how organized it is. Both my ramps are slapping around in my bed. I tied them on the sides above my wheel wells after being tired of hearing them slap around and just noticed they scratched the paint above the wells. I have the regular bifold ramps. Willing to buy new ramps if i can get a nice neat setup. anyone have any good suggestions and pics?

A trifold ramp should fit under most sport quads. If you have a 5.5' bed the tailgate would be down anyway so you can just strap it down. Depending on which ramp you choose it could just sit under the quad with the tailgate closed in a 6.5' bed.

I have a trifold for the ATVs. I put it on the side of them with spray in liner and bed mat and it doesn't slide around at all.

If you can't close your tailgate, get you a set of these and stow your ramp under your quad

I have two 6 foot planks with the ramp kit on either end. I sit them next to the tractor or quad and they stay put with the straps that hold the equipment on.

Why do you have ramps sliding around anyway?

My 10ft folding ramps fit under my toolbox. Really convenient since its out of the way and dont move w a strap holding them. If i used them more id just leave them there permanantly.

I cheaped out and just bought a 6ft 2x8 and bedlined it, but I just strap it down to the side of the bed and it isn't going anywhere. its hard to see but its sticking out of the end of the bed in this pic. one strap over and one strap at the end and its good to go.

I leave the ramps in the bed of the truck even when I'm not towing the bikes. Was looking for a nice clean organized setup like in the new 2015 F150's

The strap on the ramp on the side isn't actually tying it down. I just had excess strap, so I wrapped it around the ramp for the time being, that way it didnt fly around in the wind on the highway lol. I have since cut the excess off of the strap
