Depends. You can find printers from $600-$5000. RFID labels are around $100 for 400 labels.
Hook up an arduino, pi, etc to an RFID reader and wifi, and have a local app read all of the labels it can find in the vehicle comes back and the MAC reconnects to the home office. Crosscheck missing RFID labels from what was listed to be installed that day for customers, and send alerts on missing items.
