A vehicle includes a system for autonomously onboarding the vehicle onto a ramp with one or more ramp paths. The system has sensors positioned in front of the front wheels of the vehicle that obtain a three dimensional view of at least an area in front of the wheels. The system also has a control unit configured to receive the three dimensional view from the sensors, identify the one or more ramp paths of the ramp in the three dimensional view, calculate a three dimensional path for onboarding the vehicle on the one or more ramp paths of the ramp and control the vehicle to autonomously onboard the vehicle on to the one or more ramp paths of the ramp along the three dimensional path.
