    Good luck finding your post again later if you want to reference it. With how fast this thread grows and if you post much, it's not going to happen. If you want to use TW as your maintenance log, start a build thread and use a single post and edit it as needed.

    Since you're using Fuelly for your fuel tracking, they have an option for setting up service reminders. The Carfax app also let's you setup service reminders and enter service information.

    I have a spreadsheet on my computer that I use for tracking service information.

    I just use the maint req'd light on the dash. It hasn't come on yet but I haven't put 5,000 miles on the truck from when I bought it in the middle of November (changed the oil about a week after I bought it). I live 7 miles from work, so that helps.

    Now that I have the navigation head unit working, I can also use the maintenance part of the system.

    Have you adjusted yours yet? I can’t get my spanned in there to unlock the collar? Which way did you rotate the top lock ring to get it unlocked?

    Scored a set of aluminum running boards off of a 2016 PRO for free. Just cost me the gas to pick up, hardware, and some skin off my knuckles.
