Can you post the venmo info so some of us lurkers can donate?

Ok fellas...UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!

Well I'm still in shock to be honest!! And NO I don't need bail money, even though Perow sent a text offering to help if I did! Thanks Spencer!

When we got to the dealership I asked the service manager to review the quote with me. See attached.
I lit into him pretty good and expressed how disappointed I was with the close to $6,000 in parts and more than $1,800 in labor quote!! How on earth can someone, regardless of their situation, be ok with that kind of estimate? Let alone a family that is in the situation that this one is in?
He said that due to the situation he was sure that he would be able to offer some "assistance" and probably be able to get it down.
I was ticked and said that even if that assistance knocked half the price off that they still can't afford $4k. I just told him to bring the van around and give us the keys that we were taking it down the road to Trans Pro.

He asked us to give him a minute to talk to his GM.

Come to find out the vehicle had just barely exceeded the mileage warranty and the GM was willing to go to bat for this family. He agreed to complete all repairs for $1,000 deductible...PERIOD!

WHAT A BLESSING! God is good and I'm still in shock of how this played out. I won't mention names but KUDOS to the service manager and GM at Platinum Dodge in Terrell Tx!! It's great to see a company support their community like this.
I still want to help this family out to offset some of that $1k because they don't even have that. There is still a need.

I am going to PM my wife's Venmo information to everyone on the thread that offered to help out with a contribution. Because of the reduction please DO NOT feel obligated, but if you still feel inclined to help out that would be very generous.

Thanks again everyone!

Great news. Let's get the matter resolved. Post the info to donate.

Ok ok the PMs are wearing me out. [emoji23]

Here you go. Again fellas, please don't feel obligated in any way, shape or form. We have been blessed by the dealership already but this family can use anything if inclined.
Anything extra we get I am gonna ask the dealership to get the van up on it's regular maintenance needed while there. Oil change/air filter/tires, etc.

But no biggie either way. God bless.
