I wish they would build one into a GPS since you already enter your route in there anyway.

I use VehiCal (free) for iPhone. I can keep track of mileage, repair costs, and gas. You can email the data to yourself every month for import into your desktop.

There are apps that gives you this option. I use for example “aidoo mobile” (aidoo-mobile.com). This app helps me with navigating to my clients and keeps track of mileage. and there are also other options.
