Get Okan back on the road: my food truck repair fund

Without my food truck Okan cannot work; a $500 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 5 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working. I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $500 goes: • gearbox replacement (parts): $320 • Labor charges: $85 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $45 • Towing and inspection: $50 Thanks for being kind about this. - Okan

    Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Corpus Christi.
