I make my living with my pickup. 4 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $2,200. Without the vehicle I earn nothing. I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask. I support my family of five. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working. I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $2,200 goes: โ€ข transmission replacement (parts): $1,600 โ€ข Labor charges: $260 โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $270 โ€ข Towing and inspection: $70 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
