Abstract
A method for reporting vehicle fuel data includes operatively connecting an onboard computing device to a data bus of a vehicle. Using the onboard computing device, the method further includes continuously electronically monitoring and obtaining vehicle operation data. The vehicle operation data includes vehicle fuel consumption data, mileage data, and GPS location data. The vehicle operation data and driver identification data are electronically recorded and stored in a memory device of the onboard computing device. A fuel data log is electronically generated using the vehicle operation data continuously monitored, obtained and calculated from the data bus of the vehicle, and stored in the memory device of the onboard computing device. Using data processing software, the method further includes electronically generating a fuel data report incorporating portions of the fuel data log.
