Yep, our driveway has an incline to it and I always set the parking brake and let the car "settle" before shifting into park (P).

I can usually roll out of it without using reverse. Sometimes I actually move the car out into the street (so I can get my Jeep out of the garage) without even starting it!

That said, I can't get the wife to do the same with our Honda minivan. I hate getting in it, shifting to drive and hearing that gawd-awful "THUNK!"
