Me too, keep all receipts in folder, plus a handwritten log on all maintenance with dates. No car wash receipts though, my cars only insist on me washing them

I don't keep anything unless it pertains to some kind of warranty.

I keep everything, either in the glovebox or a folder in the home office. Rather be safe than sorry. I've got some quick detailer and MF cloths in the compartment behind the passenger

Yep with all my vehicles, & when I purchase used I look for someone who has taken the time to do so as well. It's nice knowing the history, mods & maintenance of the vehicle.

Ditto. All receipts on all Purchases/Repairs/Maintenances ...etc are kept in a file for each vehicle I own/have owned. Helps out when I have to look back to see at what mileage I did the particular service, and what services I did, not to mention it makes a great impression on whomever you are selling your car to at the end, thereby keeping your resale value a little higher...! I always ask for receipts and such when I am purchasing a used vehicle, and am very disappointed when they can't prove to me one thing they did on the car, or when!

Mine is the same way, the Z has it's own folder in the cabinet.

On losing track, I like that one. I also like the one where you make it look like you had it on the shelf for a while and just haven't gotten around to doing it/using it

I think this is why some of my friends think I am crazy I am pretty sure I have 95-99% of my gas receipts even I have every thing. I still have the window sticker.

SIDENOTE: I still need to get the window sticker laminated can't believe I haven't done that yet!
