Help me get back on the road!

My Jeep which is my only mode of transportation needs a new engine. I have quotes ranging from $2,600 to $4,700 to get me back on the road and once again have transportation to and from work.
Earlier in the summer my job of over a decade ended. So I found work to get by at a greatly reduced pay rate to avoid commuting to Dallas in a 25 year old jeep. Well that just did not pan out and now I am just stuck. I have a little savings to keep me and my critters going for a little bit but not enough to survive and do the necessary repairs on the jeep.

I never thought I would publicly solicit funds for myself. I am usually the person that steps up to help others and find the needed help for them. I pray that karma comes into play here and I promise as soon as I get back on my feet to continue to pay it forward to others in need.

Thank you for any help you may be able to give and for your prayers and positive energy sent my way.
