Do You.....

[Zembonez]

Like the title says. Do you use your parking brake when you park your truck?

 

I don't think I have ever set the parking brake on any of my trucks. I know it should be used but I never do...

 

Am I the only one?

[tobias]

I only use it on the boat ramp.

only time i every used it was when i took dash apart and had to tilt the wheel and put it in 1st.

The last time I tried to use that, the cable snapped.... I love NY...

[satori]

I very rarely use it. The only time I can think of that I DO use it is when I have to get out on a steep mountain trail to go scout the way I want to try.

When I park the truck in the garage it will roll back or forwards a fraction of an inch when the transmission goes into park. I don't have that much room to spare, so I use the P brake to hold the truck still when I park. The truck will have about 1" of clearance in front and another 1" of clearance in the back. It sucks, but at least it fits.

Yes, when parked on an incline. Otherwise, no.

I would probably use it on a boat ramp if I had to leave the truck unattended. Luckily my wife is an expert at backing me into the water. I just unhook the boat from the trailer on dry land and have her back it in until I float. The four stroke starts up like a car - all ready to go, and then she parks and I pick her up at the dock. There's always a live foot on the brake.

i set it on inclines, and when im loading mowers, quads, ect using the ramps into the bed

[18702GMT900]

I use mine daily because the drive way at my place is at slight incline and I've notice a very dramatic roll back if I do not use the parking brakes; and I also use it every where else because out of habits

[svensk]

I use mine everyday.

My wife is still amazed that my parking brake can hold my truck in place while trying to accelerate. Where her previous car a grand am gt could be driven down the road with the parking brake on the whole way.

[Jasonsupafly]

Same here. Only when launching the boat...

[Ed Blown Vert]

I use it everytime I park.
