    Abstract: A tilting ramp is for mounting to a truck, and once so mounted for loading, unloading and transport of at least one personal recreational vehicle. The ramp is slidable over a bed of the truck. A pivot member is mounted into a receiver tube mounted to the truck. The pivot member extends upwardly into translational engagement with the ramp. The ramp may be translated over both the bed and the pivot member between a transport position forward on the bed and a pivoting position pivotable about the pivot member. In the pivoting position the ramp is pivotable between the horizontal and an inclined position in engagement with the ground surface.
