Has anyone found a good vehicle maintainance log for their car or truck? I like to keep track of my mileage at every fill up and keep track of oil changes and other maintainance I do on my truck. Anyone have some ideas on how to stay organized?

Thanks!

For personal vehicles, I use a spiral bound book that fits the glove box. Just write each item as it occurs, date and accumulated mileage. When I change oil- every time-, I record the filter number and the wrench size required. Can buy filters and get the tools together before I open the hood.

If you have microsoft works bring up the task launcher then go to vehicle logs. You can use then as is or change them to fit you specific needs. Works well for me.

A .49 sprial bound pocket notebook works for me. First page contains the purchase price of the truck, add-on options, etc. Then I just use one side of each page to list date, milage, gallons, cost for fuel, oil changes, tires, etc. IRS approved, as long as you keep it current, and not just fill it in the day before a audit!

For years I have just used a good vinyl covered 3x5 note book. Got them at wall mart.

Mine is a simple "5 subject notebook" One page for oil changes, one for brakes, "nother for transmission oil maintenance, radiator, etc. And the balance for notations of belt sizes, paint codes, brake line lengths and any other things that are easily forgotten. Has worked for me over the years as each year I can remember less. Without this written record, wouldn"t have a clue of where I stood on the condition of my four rides.
