Maintenance log books

Where can I find a good , small sized maintenance log book to keep track of my vehicles oil changes etc etc for warranty claims.

Currently just write down the info in a small spiral notebook, But a pre-printed log would be nice.

I know I could make and keep one on a disc or computer file, but I like to keep one in the truck also.

Thanks in advance

Try office max, office depot or staples. They have small mileage and maintenance logs for keeping up with auto expenses for taxes or expense accounts. Mine is abour 3" x 6" and I keep it above the visor to record daily mileage.

Books? How archaic!

Try http://www.ownersite.com <---shameless plug

If that doesn't work, I know I've seen them at OfficeMax...

I made a couple of Excel spreadsheets, one for maintenance, and one for oil changes only. I keep them in a looseleaf binder with all of my receipts, etc. And I keep the binder under the back seat.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll try the one at Staples.

BTW there is no such thing as a shameless plug

Thanks again

I have saved every receipt and recorded mileage , date and time for any services to my truck.

I even saved every mod receipt and date of installation. Bug guard , chip , etc.. You name it , I got it . The only exception is fuel .

I keep it all in the Owners Manual Pouch when I got my truck . Someday I will put it into a Spreadsheet or what the heck , maybe even make PowerPoint presentation with pics and all, who knows . The info is there , just need to format it.

J-150,

See what happens when you post a smart#$$ reply, you end up triple posting.

Like my momma always said if you dont have something nice to post, then don't post anything at all (just kidding)

I am currently sitting behind a console of 12 computers, and have done so for 18 years now, so needless to say, I don't trust any computer to hold MY important data, gimme a good old book and pencil anyday.

I use the Ford web site.


https://myford.fordvehicles.com/serv...ord%3D15419550


This site is the one that your local ford dealer uses and shows anything that your dealer has done to your truck. If you keep your record here, when you go in for anything and they pull your record up, they will see that you have done the required maint.
