    I also have the harbor freight chuck but recall the store price was substantially under the catalog price of $10. The hard rubber has a good feel.

    I use Aircraft chocks when it is parked in my garage (no need to leave it in gear, and no need to engage the parking brake). They are a front/back set which is best, since you only need to chock 1 wheel, and the set is connected with a rope so you can easily pull them away (and I have a hook on which I hang them).

    Gee, I just use a scrap piece of 2X4. When I back the car back into the garage I merely back to the wood and shut it down. If I tracked it I would probably use a scrap peice of 4X4 cut diagonally lenght wise for the pits.
