You could spend the big bucks to get one of those special diffs that are disengaged by the handbrake.
"When I get a rental car, I like to drive around with the emergency brake on. That doesn't say a lot about me, but it also doesn't say a lot about the emergency brake. It's more like an emergency-make-the-car-smell-funny lever." -Mitch Hedberg
The MPGuino froze on me this morning when I went for a drive (after putting heatsinks on the power regulator and turning off the backlighting), so I beeped the horn, thinking maybe that would unstick it (as it's tapped into the horn power supply). That's when I discovered that beeping the horn reboots it.
So I'm giving up and wiring it directly to the battery, with its own 3-amp fuse (lowest amp blade fuse in the store, probably won't save the MPGuino but better than nothing) and on/off toggle switch.
