I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $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 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. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $200 goes: • Towing and inspection: $15 • gearbox replacement (parts): $135 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $50 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
