And that was the problem! I get locking them when the car shuts off,
they had issues with a weak parking pawl mount in the gear box, so I
think this is why they defaulted to activating the parking brake
automatically in later years. They just could have honored the parking
switch in the cabin and released the brakes when requested. I was
going to tow it the rest of the way home. I was also curious if
regenerative braking would have charged it enough to make it up the
driveway.
