This is the idea behind vehicle notes. Click 'Add a note' from the menu to the left to try it out. I add oil changes via notes, and you can see how others are using notes here: Recent Activity showing New Notes. Just click their car name and scroll down to their recent fuel-ups to see how notes fit in with fuel-ups.
That's a cool idea. I've got a little book for each car that tracks that too, but it would be nice to see what others total for cost of ownership too.
Another cool thing that I have noticed, believe it or not, is that when I needed to replace my tires my mileage went down with the ones that I chose. Maybe, that's not a cool thing. I guess it was cool that I was able to notice it since I was recording everything. I didn't expect the brand of tires to affect my mileage the way it did. That would let everyone see how a particular brand of tires can change what you're getting on gas mileage.
