I keep the parking brake on as I'm accelerating and release it when there's enough power to get moving. It's pretty cool when the ramp is slippery and all four wheels spin a little. I've seen idiots in 2-wheel drive trucks have a hard time getting up the ramp after submerging the rear end in the water. My bumper, muffler and rear wheels rarely ever touch the water. The ramp in the pic above was too level and forced me to lower the trailer further then I normally do.

Nice Yamaha OP. I couldn't imagine using an evo to put stuff in from a boat ramp.

Anyone seen the Top Gear where they use an evo to tow a caravan?
