If you buy a piece of wood, 6" wide, & 4" high, with a gentle ramp on  
it....
So say the 45 degree ramp is say a foot long, and the top is say 6"  
long, then you have your own portable ramp you can use for anything  
(getting over speed humps, kerbs, with a flat tyre onto a Jack)
And its in your boot at all times.
You just never know when a 6" x 4" that's 18" long will come in handy!
Tack a piece of carpet on the wedged end, and you'll even be able to  
easily drive onto it.......
