What's inside

  • Start Here

    6 quick steps, settings (miles or km, gallons or liters, any currency, warning thresholds) and a color legend

  • Dashboard

    Pick a vehicle or "All Vehicles": total spent, service vs fuel vs other costs, cost per mile/km, distance, fuel economy, monthly spending chart, category breakdown and a "What needs attention" list

  • My Vehicles

    Up to 5 cars, trucks or motorcycles; current odometer, distance driven and cost per mile/km are calculated for you

  • Service Log

    300 rows with drop-downs for vehicle and service type; parts + labor = total

  • Maintenance Schedule

    Editable intervals (oil change, tire rotation, brakes, filters, coolant, spark plugs and more) with automatic status for every vehicle: OK / Due soon / Overdue / No record

  • Fuel Log

    500 rows; distance between fill-ups and fuel economy (MPG or L/100 km)

  • Other Expenses

    Insurance, registration & taxes, parking & tolls, car wash, fines, accessories

  • Documents

    Insurance, inspection and license expiry dates with Valid / Expiring soon / Expired alerts

  • History Report

    A printable service history to show a buyer when you sell your car

Why you'll like it

  • Everything is calculated automatically — you only type dates, odometer readings and amounts
  • Cream cells = your input, gray cells = formulas, so it is hard to break anything
  • Sample data included so you can see how it works; clearing it takes a minute (instructions inside)
  • Miles or kilometers, gallons or liters, any currency
  • No subscription, no app, no ads — your data stays in your own file
