How do you shift a 1999 S-80 out of PARK when parked uphill- Mine gets stuck and some one needs to push it forward before you can change gears?

[Edit]

Answer

When you park it on a hill- use the Parking brake or turn wheels into curb and park vehicle against it.

Another way I have found, but it takes two people. The one in the driver's seat gently shifts the transmission. The second person will need to either be in front or in back of the car rocking it forward and back. This works well, but be careful!
