Anybody use the parking brake on automatic SC300?

Does anybody actually use the parking brake on an automatic transmission SC 300? Being familiar with other automatics with other cars, I have rarely used them. I have used them on manual transmissions.

Thanks,

Hi Kevin...welcome to the Forum

I wouldn't bother with using the handbrake, as the transmission locks the vehicle in place so no need to apply the handbrake.

Saying that, it may be worth applying it every so often to keep the mechanism moving and keeping it from seizing.
