Substantial Vehicle Repair Bill

Hey y'all, Erica here utilizing my last resort to help us with quite the hefty vehicle repair bill for our 2015 Ford Expedtion. Anybody that knows us and our family is familiar with how important it is to have a vehicle to haul our huge crew around to football games and wrestling meets as well as work. Some of you know the intensity of the chaos and stressful events that our family has gone through in the past year. It seems as though despite staying strong as a family and holding onto our faith through the sunshine and storms, we cannot seem to catch a break. There is always trials and tests of your belief in yourself as well as God's will through some of the darkest moments, but never giving up will always reap greatness in the end. Let me tell you it has not been easy, we suffered through a lot of loss for our family when in the end we literally were left with each other. The most important thing of course, each other, material things are replaceable.

Anyways, back to the reason for this, our Expedition needed the whole rear differential rebuilt which came to a hefty bill of $6,300. Not to mention additional work that is needed which has put us in a position where we cannot trade in our vehicle due to the dollar amount of repairs matches our loan we are still currently paying. We were offered $300 by Ford in Shakopee which was definitely not an option, which in the end forced our hand to repair the initial issue to make it drivable. We are asking for help with this because all options are exhausted right now and the stress of trying to cope and move forward from everything is difficult when we just keep getting weighted down with another thing.

It is not the easiest thing coming forward like this but as many others we are all fighting some sort of battle in the life. I know this, we have had some serious angels surrounding us and people actually caring about what's really going in our life. Many have helped without even blinking an eye or passing judgement which is something we're very grateful for. If you can help out God Bless you and fantastic, if you cannot God Bless you as well. I set our goal for $10,000 for the repair bill for our truck that is sitting ready at Ford Shakopee, also to go towards recovering costs for this rental vehicle that we've had for the past 6 weeks. If you took the time to see and read this much appreciation for a couple minutes of your time, stay blessed.
