BTW, this also useful when hooking up to a trailer on a grade. So you back up looking at the camera display until the hitch ball is just below to coupler. Tap the brakes and hit park and take your foot off the brake. Crap, the truck moved 2" as park was engaged.

OK next try, when the truck position is just right, foot on the brake and engage the parking brake. Then go for park. Wow, the truck does not move.
