New Web Site for Tracking Your Equipment Service History

I have started a new, free service on the web for tracking the service history, maintenance, parts, and fuel history for your tractors, trucks and other equipment. The site is absolutely free and I only require an e-mail address and password to let you start storing your equipment history, and I don't use the e-mail for anything but communicating with you and keeping your information safe.

If you're like me, you're probably tracking your equipment in spreadsheets or in paper files. This site lets you put the information in a safe place where you can get to it from any web browser.

I started the site because I wanted a way to track my own farm equipment. I want to expand the site to meet the needs of all kinds of equipment owners, so your ideas on how to improve it are welcome. Please check it out at My Equipment Tracker - Keeping you running strong. and let me know what you think.

Thanks for your support.

Welcome to the forum Fins! An awesome idea that deserves to be made a sticky! I'm all over it! I'll be the first from this site, to join up!

Thank for the support. I really want to make this web site useful and I am all for taking suggestions on how to improve it. I am thinking of providing maintenance schedules, alerts when you need to do maintenance, etc. Try out the site and let me know what you think.

Fins, I was just wondering how your online maintenance project was going? I'm really surprised we haven't had more hits on this.

Just Checking In

Yeah, I am a little disappointed in the uptake on the site also. I haven't given up on the idea, but I would love some feedback from folks who have looked at the website on how we might make the site, or just the idea, more useful.

I think it's a fabulous idea. I just haven't been running my tractor that much, but I like the idea of you giving a heads up for maintenance and what not. These things take time, and you just need to be patient. I was listening on NPR about Ebay when it started up, and how laughable it was, that the site owner was helping people list things on his site, to what is is now! Hang in there!
