Does anyone run a ramp rack system in a 2500 pick up? What are disadvantages?

Thinking on running the ramp rack system to save on pulling a trailer in tight neighborhoods. Curious if anyone is having any issues.

    The biggest downside I have faced with the ramp rack on my F250 CCLB is not being able to keep the bagger on my 52" Vride 2... It has been great for those tighter areas, as well as on some of our commercial/condo properties, where parking a truck and trailer is almost impossible without blocking people in. The other downside faced is we are limited on what we have for room with keeping square barrels in the truck, on the few properties we bag. 2027 we are looking into purchasing a new mowing truck, and leaning towards a cab over with a landscape body to provide us more space. We currently fit our **bleep** 36" SWZT and our 52" vride on the truck.
