Plastic Car Ramps.

I stopped at my local auto parts store, and was thinking of buying a set of ramps to assist with the oil changes. (I know we get free maint for 3 yrs, but I'm considering changing oil in between schedule trips to the dealer) Much to my surprise, I noticed all the ramps were made out of plastic.
There were two sets rated for 5k lbs and 7.5k lbs.
My question is; how can plastic ramps support that much weight? I for one, do not feel comfortable crawling under a car with plastic ramps.
I spoke with the sales guy and he sez that's all they sell.
Any feedback on these plastic ramps is welcome.
