By no means do I ever "start and go" but letting it idle for long periods of time can cause long term damage to the trans. That's why I let mine warm up in nuetral like I said before. People just tend to make it habbit to remote start and forget or lose track of time and the whole time your trans is running dry because it doesn't pump fluid in park. Just my Opinion, that's all.

Got the rear main cap reinstalled with sealant in the appropriate spots. After a degree of thought and analysis I determined my oil pan gasket was badly chewed up, hence the issues with the engine constantly streaming/spewing/pissing oil. All that work on the rear main for naught! I'll get a new oil pan gasket.
Still waiting for my replacement starter parts to arrive so I can reassemble the starter and install it.

Emergency vehicles sit for hours on end in park at times and I've never heard of an issue

Agreed. mnewbolds, where did you come up with that idea? You're spreading dis-information based on an invalid opinion.

I'm not going to argue with anyone about it... I was simply making a note of it to the fella that wanted to install his remote start. If you check the trans level in park the level is above the "max" on the stick. Dodge requires that you have the vehicle in nuetral to check the fluid, where would the rest of the fluid go? Just piecing things togather. So do me a favor and give it no further thought and do what you wish. Sorry I added my 2cents on an open forum....

Yes, check the fluid in neutral, but the vehicle can idle in park and not burn up the transmission. Don't get all butt-hurt if you are corrected on an invalid ASSumption.
