Like others I create electronic copies of the receipts (oil, filters, etc). I keep a log book in the truck showing the date, mileage and the services performed.

I'm with you partner !!
I don't do this now as I get my oil changed @ a dealer/quick lube etc.. & have receipts !!
But for those that changed their own from barrels /walmart ....have those proper receipts etc. but also document in a little book (mine was in glove box) ....
Jan 13th 2004 ...changed oil/filter ...serviced Trans. Feb.28th replaced bulb right tail light .checked tire pressure...etc,etc.....This will hold up in court I would think !!
In short keep records !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did order Red Line oil from Summit Racing for my F150 though, I'll have to be sure to save a copy of that receipt.
if ou want to save the receipts copy them. those slips fade away quickly
