i set my parking brake on the boat ramp and it holds fine. i don't like to let it roll to the point where the transmission holds it. i've seen vehicles get stuck in park, where you couldn't shift it. i don't want to be in that position at a busy boat ramp.
Ya i don't want to be one of those guys either...plus if that happened I wouldn't want to have a chevy or ford guy see that my dodge can't shift out of park on the ramp! hahah!

Yeah I have gotten my truck almost stuck in park and that was in a friends yard on a little hill with my 3 wheelr in my bed I couldnt get it out of park so I had him push on my bumper and rock the truck till it came out of park

Most vehicles that end up in the water are related to idiot drivers versus malfunction, and I laugh at them when they have the boat on the trailer and this happens because nimrod on the boat just needs to stay on the throttle a little and it will keep said vehicle from swimming

Going swimming in a lake is not that bad compared to going into salt water, you total a vehicle the second it goes into saltwater because it will never be right, the best part is having a tow truck come get you out and paying the fines for pollution and paying a haz-mad diver to hook up your truck
