TrackItWeb--Has Anyone Tried It??
I have been using a notebook to keep track of when I last changed oil, did repairs, etc., for a while, but I decided to move bravely into the 1980's and start keeping track of all that on the computer. I looked around for software that could do the job, but that stuff is really pricey. Then I found this online program called TrackItWeb, which is really reasonable ($2 a month) and looks pretty good. It has a lot more features than I think I would use, but also does the basic stuff I want, and sends reminders when things are due. They have a free 30-day trial, but you have to have a PayPal account to do it (something about keeping your credit card info on a separate site) and I don't have one, so I was wondering if anyone uses it and could give me an idea if it's worth it to set up PayPal and give it a try.

http://fte.ownersite.com for a less expense, more comprehensive solution. I've know the founder of Ownersite personally and he's a stand-up, ethical person you can trust. Ownersite has been doing it longer than anyone else on the web.

A Good Milking
Yeah, I think they do want to give my credit card a bit of a milking, but unlike the software I looked at, they're only milking instead of taking the whole farm.
I just went through that mandatory evac for Rita, and anything that stores my records online somewhere else is looking like it's worth a couple of bucks a month. I looked at their main web site, and apparently they are coming out with an online home inventory. If the vehicle thing turns out to be decent, I'll probably go for that too!

Ownersite
I didn't even know about Ownersite, and I use FTE a lot. It looks good, too, though I like the idea of paying by the month the way TrackItWeb does instead of by the year like Ownersite in case I end up not liking it. It looks like the cost is the same for me, because I have more than one vehicle I would want to track. I think I might give them both a try and see which one is easier to use.
