Funny Story...

You got lucky! I'm crazy about the e-brake. I normally don't park it in gear though unless I'm on an incline/decline.

Yeah, e-brake is instinct before I even turn off the car, just never got into the habit of putting it back in gear.

which im sure is completely fine.


very long time ago i had a pos civic where the ebrake would loosen up after many hard ebrake pulls. since then my mind keeps thinking that even my Z's drum cable would loosen up after a while and so only use a snug pull, and put into gear. i rarely pull the ebrake REAL hard unless im on a steep incline.

Yeah, Chicago is very flat. But still not a bad habit to get into. It's extra security.
