To me it looks like the quad is strapped to the ramp/deck thing, the ramp/deck thing is being supported by the bumper extension doo-hickey, but the ramp/deck thing is not tied down to the bumper extension doo-hickey.

Or am I missing something? Great idea no matter what.

If you dragged the ATV-on-the-ramps forward across those supports the ramps are on it looks like it'd fall backwards before it fell forwards. My guess is that they don't use the ramps as ramps at all and just yank it right off onto the ground.

I was a hitch mechanic for u-haul during college. I've heard and seen it all. The best was a guy called up to get a hitch installed on his Town and Country. I asked what size hitch he needed, and he answered whatever that can tow a bobcat loader.

Saw this at the local Boat Ramp... Wanted to hang out to get some pic/video of them loading it up but had to go. Trailer looked like it was for about a 20' boat...

I'd love to see that setup pull a boat out of the Sacramento Delta. Some of the older ramps on the delta are insanely steep.

looks like a big inground tank, or a large standup water tank. Some kind of farm tank anyway that should really be on a trailer.

Boats are about the easiest load to tow (per weight), IMO...
My great uncle puts his 19ft 4.3l runabout in the water in the spring and takes it out of the water in the fall with his caravan... refuses to take my truck or the wife''s trailblazer... it actually rows it fine... no wandering, understeer, or stability issues, as long as you don't try and drive it like is empty... don't know that I would tow it any distance in the mountains, but its really not bad...
