I used something like this on some metal ramps that I had; they were too slick before. Krylon also makes a similar product.

Those raceramps that 1bad15 mentioned are nice. They have ones with longer approach ramps for lowered vehicles, plus the ramp part is detachable

Going up ramps in the 2012 with hill start assist takes a little skill and use of the left foot on the brake pedal.

Ingenious! I never would have thought of that! LOL My daughter did a burnout on the ramps too in her Kia Spectra! Then drove off the end before asking Dad for help!

My first time driving up ramps I overshot and cleared the ramps and rested my 66 Malibu right on the rocker panels…. FML lessons learned hard are not soon forgotten.
These are the ones I got about 6 years back.

Yup, it's real and not just an emblem.
It's only a tire/wheel package and different/stiffer suspension. Plus the black leather seats have the red piping and R/T logos. Nothing different with the engine

you mean Race Minivan!
LMAO I’m not spending $500 for a pair of ramps no matter what they’re made of, that’s ridiculous. The $40 ones are fine for me.
Yeah Dodge changed the R/T to almost meaninglessness, it used to mean something. Supposed to stand for Race Technology then they added SRT which stands for Street Race Technology and the R/T means pretty much nothing. There should never be a Dodge Neon R/T for Gods sake. There should have never been a Dodge Neon period.
I bought mine with a promotional deal, so I only paid about $300 shipped for them.
A must have for us static dropped guys
That's about half of us here but I haven't needed them. I do use a couple pieces of 2 x 6 though, about $450 cheaper.

I have a set of steel ones in the garage attic that have more years of dust on them than I can remember since I got Blitz Rhinos. Ramps certainly have their place here but one vehicle's running boards are a bit low so it means using a floor jack to lift the car and stick the ramps in. Might just as well use jack stands in that case. The Tahoe manages fine though, even using all 4 ramps. The ramps, in general, can tend to be in the way if much manuvering around under the vehicles is required for the job so a good jack and stands are really good to have.
With age I have gotten more safety inclined........you only have a vehicle slip or slide on ramps once.That's about half of us here but I haven't needed them. I do use a couple pieces of 2 x 6 though, about $450 cheaper.
