The Toyota Owner's app allows you to upload images, so I'll often do that as part of my log. You can also snap a quick picture of any receipts (i.e. alignment, tires, etc.) and add that as well.
I've been sending off a sample for oil analysis at every oil change just to keep some level of 3rd party recording as well should I ever have a major warranty claim. Once the truck is out of the 5 year/60k I'll likely switch to every other oil change for an analysis. Probably overkill, but more data is always preferable.

Oh good to know! I got lazy about it, I had written it down but hadn't gotten around to actually logging it somehwere.
I added my last few services and mileage into the Toyota Owner's site on my laptop, di not even think to check to see if there was an app. Adding photos of receipts and stuff sounds good.
I wish this linked with carfax though, my carfax show's my 4R as missing 2 services (oil changes I DIY'd).
Mine is way out of warranty, but I'd like a good svc hstory for resale. I just can't bring myself to bring it to the dealer for fluid changes though, haha.
