I'm looking forward to those pictures.

I've got a possible fix for the sliding problem. How about attaching the ramps to a piece of plywood? If the plywood was perhaps 8-10" long on the approach side (the beginning or bottom) of the ramp the wheels would easily climb onto the relatively thin plywood and then transition to the ramp itself without the ramp slipping because it is anchored to the plywood which is held in place by the weight of the vehicle.
