I have found that a couple of sections of 2 x 10 lumber, or similar, 
perhaps a foot or so long can be very helpful.  They are way less 
hassle to drive on than ramps and that extra inch and a half can make 
a big difference.  On some low cars you can't even fit a jack 
underneath without doing something like this first.
