Not sure if this helps anybody, but for due dates I do all my maintenance by dividing the actual mileage by my intended interval - for example if my odo is divisible by 5, I change my oil. If it's divisible by 25 (or 50 if I get lazy) I adjust the valves, tighten the intake bolts, etc.

This sounds obvious, but what I mean is I round up or down the actual mileage so the counter 'resets' on every interval to the nearest 5k mark so it's never a goofy number to remember.
