I built a ramp that I use to get the Collies in and out of the truck. I used plywood 1/2" 6'×16" with 1"×2" around the perimeter with two 1"×2" braces 1/3 of the way. I covered the top with non slip stick on tape used for steps.
The ramp is lite weight and sturdy holds my 95LB Collie without any problems. I had bought a telescoping plastic ramp that was covered with carpet. It was heavy, hard to extend retract and the carpet was to slick for the Collies to get good traction on not to mention expensive.
My almost 15 year old Collie has no trouble using my ramp and the cost was minimal.
