I have an excel spreadsheet set up. Each line item list the date, destination(s), # of nights spent, and miles traveled. I don't worry about exact mileage. I use google maps by entering the start point, intermediate point(s), and end point to get a resonable mileage number to plug in. When I do things like buy new tires or pack bearings, I enter a new line item at that point in time.
Then at the bottom I have summation cells to keep a running total of miles traveled, total nights spent, miles since last bearing pack, miles on current tires, etc.
Simple and easy to do. I update it when I return home. And I do not have to worry about remembering to read the odometer each time.
Pretty much the same thing. Easy to set up and easy to do calculations.
We actually set it up with 1 day per row. It currently goes back to 2007 and covers RV, Boat, vacation and other misc stuff.
Unless there is something wrong, you will be hard pressed to wear out a set of tires (even putting 4000miles per year the tread hasn't worn down significantly).
