If so, what? How can you account for it?

The friction is set. Friction is the amount of resistance between to contacting substances. Adding an incline will not affect the amount of friction involved. Adding an incline WILL cause you to work more AGAINST gravity. You will then have to pull harder to fight gravity's pull. On a level plane gravity is pushing the car straight down and it will not roll one way or the other. On an incline it is being pushed down also but now there is this new path of least resistance to deal with.

Sure does. The friction will have to do with the weight the car is pressing against the ground. More weight, more friction. Maximum, then, on flat ground. Minimum, similarly, pulling straight up. But, that is only friction, and the force (total) of pulling a car up an incline is mostly pulling its weight.

why the **** are you pulling a car. just start it and drive it

it has a effect as normal reaction depends on it
