I use it on occassion. It helps prevent sticking and it's a habit, helps other cars keep the rear shoes in adjustment.

I always use the parking brake. It makes me feel secure.

Now I do

I wasn't using it enough and the bell cranks froze. After repeated lube and banging on with a hammer they finally loosened (this took awhile). Now I use it regularly and spray inside the rubber boot with penetrating oil routinely.
