    Yes except mine was a 2007. And yes those ramps. If that's too expensive for you then get some 8-10 foot 2x8-10 boards cut and use them in addition to the pull out ramps. But even then you will need an additional set of ramps when using the pull outs as extensions

    Wow so happy i found someone who have used exactly the same before. What is the biggest load you had on it? I saw somewhere same type trailer had 4 Dodge grand Caravans loaded. Is this one is capable of that? I would like to find out how long those 3 cars that goes one after the other can be so we can fit 4 on the trailer..

    I don't think was an infinity. 4 Caravans would need the "lift and tilt" like on a Sun Country. Unless they were running some serious rear extensions lol. Come to think of it I did have 2 Honda Odyssey and a 4 door wrangler on the bottom with another van on the lift. That was all it had with the pullouts used and everything

    Thats is good enough. All we had yet (4car load) was
    2014 Jeep Cherokee
    2003 Honda Civic
    2012 Hyundai Tucson
    2014 Chrysler 200
    and it barely fit so i was kinda afraid as all those cars are a lot shorter than average! I guess more exp driver get it will be fine. Also that lift needs to be fixed

    Need to get the pump and or cylinders replaced asap. The whole point of that lift especially with a semi is to put the heaviest longest vehicle up there and out of the way. If you do have to replace the cylinders get some that are like 6" longer. Will help a bunch with what you can get under the lift

    That's the absolute best way to tell someone "I honestly don't know but I'm genuinely trying to help you." -moment I've seen on an internet forum in years.
