Do you think there is a feature or setting somewhere within UConnect that we can use to get a log of all the trips taken by the Gladiator even if the on-board Navigation system was not used and say CarPlay was used.

I guess I would like to create a log of all the trips and don't want to track it manually. Also, this could help in security to find out if the Valet took it out for a joy ride ;)

Thanks!

in my current car, I’ve been using an OBD adapter from a company called Automatic, which I sync with IFTTT to upload every trip I take to a spreadsheet in google docs.

I have it set up to automatically log trips in a couple of ways. First, it generates an ongoing spreadsheet with every trip, distance travel, etc and factors the current trip costs based on local gas prices. The second way plots every trip over a map, so I can view each trip.

Everytime I stop the car, my watch gets an alert with the highlights of the trip (distance/time/mpg/fuel trip costs).

Maybe it is a bit much, but I like having a record, and really like putting no effort into it.
