Leonardo needs my pickup repaired to get back to work in Dallas
Leonardo drives for a living in Dallas, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 4 weeks.
🇺🇸 Texas, United States1,103 views
I make my living with my pickup. 4 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $650. 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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 $650 goes:
• Labor charges: $300
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $280
• Towing and inspection: $70
If you're reading this, thank you.
Updates from Leonardo
Thank you all. We're at 10% now ($65). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward labor charges.
Small update. $65 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
