I don't, my wife does. It puts more room between the cars in the
garage.

We both used to when we lived on a major street. It was easier
because we could "block" traffic to allow us to back in, but you could
never back out. Of course, you could turn your signal on for blocks,
decreasing your speed more and more as you approached the drive way,
and people would sit behind you in the right lane honking rather than
move over one lane and go around you.

Depending on the situation, backing in can be much better.
