The invention is directed to an apparatus and method for monitoring a load of material carried by a vehicle wherein weight data is associated with data from either an inclinometer or a sensor that senses the status of the vehicle's drive train. The resulting data is time stamped and recorded to a database containing historical values of the weight of the load. The recording of the time-stamped data to the memory may be selective and responsive to one or more events such as the lapse of a predetermined time period, a change in the weight of the load or a change in the status of the drive train of the vehicle. The apparatus and method of the invention may also include downloading the time-stamped weight data from the memory to a remote site.
