    At my local McD's is an elevated drive through. I just get in line then drive over the cement dividers. A perfect 8" additional clearance for me to get underneath. Some people honk and complain. But I'm quick about it. Done several services on my truck. Saved me ton of money on repairs and didn't spend a penny on commercially made ramps.

    add car shocks to the frt to take away the hard drop. ancor/concrete into the ground. smoother drop and left going down.

    I like the wooden truss teeter totter ones at 1:38 best. I'd have a vertical flag at the mid point to use as a marker instead of just feeling for the end.

    My homemade ramps are safer than all of them. I simply stacked two 2 by 8's on top of each other and cut the ends at an angle to make it easier to drive onto. They only lift the vehicle 3 inches off the ground, but it is enough and I guarantee that they will never collapse. I could add a third level to it if I wanted to be slightly higher.

    See if the insurance companies pay out when these go tits-up.
    Want work under your car. Dig a pit. Safest and you can store stuff in it when not in use.. Stihl saw, pick, shovel. Few hundred bricks. 1/2 #MTR concrete and finish to suit. Lights, sockets, wood planks to cover. You will have loads of new mates wanting to use it. Make sure they lend a hand during excavation. I seen one 3 foot deep with 3 foot high walls alongside. The walls were used as seats and the pit cover doubled up as a table..

      For ramps it's a perfectly acceptable material. Never a light weight passenger vehicle would "crash" a solid block of wood the tires distribute the weight quite well.
      PS: On the other hand those ramps without stop bars...That's really unsafe. There's always one day when a bit of distraction and you simply drive over.
