I'm just bored and wondering. How many ppl park with:
Parking brake only.
Parking brake and in a gear.
Just in gear.

I park with only my parking brake unless i'm on a decent hill or parked for an extended amount of time.

Just parking brake... I can't leave it in gear because I installed remote start into it. Plus there aren't many hills where I'm from.

e-brake/parking brake and in gear with tires toward nearest curb. habit, my first truck (which i still have) didnt have e-brake, shoes are worn out on back and all out of adjustment and i didnt always trust my tranny cuz it would sometimes pop out of third and i didnt want that to happen in first. so i just do that out of habit.
