Help Dylan replace the transmission and return to work
Without my food truck Dylan can't work; a $1,500 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,500. 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $1,500 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $1,000
• Labor charges: $270
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $150
• Towing and inspection: $80
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

so sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Medan.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Leeds
keep going, Dylan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in El Paso donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Leeds
