Rich: I believe someone has answered, but according to my 2001 CRV Owner's
Manual, it must be done to circulate the fluids in the tranny.

Not much of a inconvenience - we usually stop every 200 miles or so anyway to
losen up "old bones". I check tires, my Allison tranny fluid and let the dog
pee. Just get in the little bugger crank it up let it run for 2-3 minutes, then
go through the shifting sequence: P,R,N,D,2,1 then back to D, then to N, shut
the engine down and turn the ignition key to ACC and drive away.

Local paper last sunday listed a bunch of Honda CRVs 1999-2003, most under
$5,000.00.
