Fer sure that could happen but then as with the Plywood feet under the
stands or jack ( I use solid wood myself ) you could easily build these
ramps yourself from 2 by 6 or something like that and then get just the
height you need.
I had that earlier but they were HEAVY so I went for metal ones instead.
OK, its stamped sheetmetal but  so are the Vanagon, 16 years old and rusted
too , and I count upon that not to break at 100 mph.....
The ramp I bought was also sold with 1� ton each label on them and I doubt
that the Vanagon will be heavier than 3/4 ton at any wheel.
But I think it�s a good idea to check them every now and then for damage
