Best ramps for a UTV?

Just out of curiousity, how much does that Mule weigh? I looked quickly at a dry weight, and it was just over 1,000lbs. That doesn't leave much for gear, you, etc once it's loaded.
There are some ramps on Cabela's website, and they'll support the weight just fine. They run a little less than $200.
That much weight scares me a little though. Just my $.02 but if it were my truck and UTV, the UTV would be in a small trailer behind my truck.

The Mule 610 dry weight is 1010. I have the max tow package on my 2010 F150 but I need to see what the max cargo weight i can add to the truck along with the tongue weight of the trailer. The trailer is a small JayCo (17c) that has a wet weight of just over 3500 (actually scaled at that weight) so the tongue weight is around 350.
Hopefully (if the truck can carry the Mule) I will be able to find decent ramps. I would probably use the winch on the Mule to pull it aboard.

Ohhh you're trying to take the Mule and the trailer? Say the tongue weight is 10% then you're talking 1460 in mule and trailer plus any occupants and gear. You're going to get close to maxed out quickly
EDIT:
You said max tow, but is that also the HD payload package? If so, then you should be fine. Find folding aluminum ramps that will support your UTV's weight plus some.
