On a steep hill, your clutch will thank you for using the handbrake. Especially in stop and go traffic towing a trailer. Ask me how I know.

    I know you're being funny, but to answer the question I posited: every summer, after people came back from towing their caravans up through the mountains, my dad's shop would be replacing loads of clutches with people complaining about the weird smells their car started making. Or the sudden trouble they had shifting.
