What gear do you keep your car in when parking on a hill?
If a manual transmission, place te shifted into first gear. If automatic, place the shifted into park. Regardless, if the car faces up the hill with the curb on the right, turn the wheels as far to the left as possible. If facing downhill with the curb on the right, turn the wheel as far to the right as possible. Just remember, uphill = away, and downhill = toward. Also don't forget to set the parking brake.
Does it harm your car to park facing up hill?
No more than it would harm parking it facing downhill. Makes no difference really. Just make very certain that you do these things when parking:* always point the wheels away from the curb when facing uphill * always point the wheels toward the curb when facing downhill * always set the parking brake while your foot is on the brake and BEFORE putting into Park on automatic transmissions. Applying the parking brake should be done every time regardless of the terrain. If one gets into the habit of doing this all the time, then it will become automatic. The little pin in the transmission is all that is holding the car from rolling ... use the brake, too. It will help greatly when you are trying to get the transmission out of Park when on a hill if the parking brake has not been used.Manual transmission people always use the parking brake (handbrake) anyway, so it is something we do without thinking. A good habit for everyone.

In an car with an automatic transmission, you should be fine not using the parking brake.
