A low-profile, heavy duty platform which with fit between the wheel wells of a pickup truck comprises retractable bed ramps with a platform for a pickup truck. Retractable ramps are provided within the platform, and each may be extended by pulling a handle located at the rear end of the ramp. When fully extended, each ramp hinges downward to contact the ground and provide an inclined surface for the loading and unloading of another, smaller vehicle. The platform is preferably provided in a pickup truck equipped with double doors which swing outward, instead of a tailgate. In another embodiment, the platform is provided in a pickup truck with a tailgate, and provides a strong, rigid extension at the hinged forward end of each ramp. The extension may be extended with the ramp by continuing to pull on the handle after the ramp is fully extended.
