My food truck: Imad's only way to earn a living
Imad drives for a living in Riyadh, and a broken transmission has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $950. 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 ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $950 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $650
• Labor charges: $120
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $90
• Towing and inspection: $90
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

keep going, Imad. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Riyadh
