Help Gerardo replace the suspension and return to work

Without my pickup Gerardo cannot work; a $450 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my pickup. 3 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $450. 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 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 $450 goes: • Road tax and insurance renewal: $210 • Labor charges: $195 • Towing and inspection: $45 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    Wishing you peace, Gerardo. Hope the shop reopens soon. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Madrid.

    • good luck, Gerardo. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Madrid.

      • Good luck, Gerardo. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Don't give up.
