I make my living with my food truck. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $210. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $210 goes: • gearbox replacement (parts): $120 • Labor charges: $25 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $60 • Towing and inspection: $5 If you're reading this, thank you.

    Hang in there, Joyce. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
