Vehicle Expense/Gas Mileage Tracking Software

Looking for software recommendations from those using a vehicle records expense tracking program.

The program must be able to track:
Gas mileage
Routine Service Performed (oil/filter/plugs/tire rotate/etc.)
Repairs
Expenses (License Plate Renewal/Ins Prem/etc.)
Parts/Accessory Purchases
The program should track expenses on multiple vehicles (up to 5)
The program should run on a Windows 7 64-bit system

In the past I used VRS 1641 ver. 4.1f (Vehicle Record System) by K-Jon Sofware. I was very happy with it. Unfortunately, that program only runs on a Windows XP 32-bit system. It is no longer supported by the author. My current computer runs on the Win 7 t64-bit OS.

Appreciate your input on finding a replacement

If you are happy with the existing software, why not continue using it?
Simply select <Start>, then right click on the title of the program. Select "Troubleshoot compatibility", then select "troubleshoot program based on problems you observe". Once you work through the selections, your program should run with no issues.

Win XP-Pro 32 bit programs run just fine with Windows Virtual Machine----I do it almost daily with supposed out of date Ford manuals on CD-ROM's.

And I would assume someone has developed a similar program that will run with Win7 or Win8. It would be hard to believe some sort of fleet management software isn't out there to do all these tasks in much the same fashion.
