We have finally made it back to Houston after 5000 miles in the "Yellow Rose of Texas" GMC. Most of those miles pulling a parts laden 6x12 trailer.
I was pleased to find gifts for the GMC Lady in the mail box.
So far, we have $265 with more in the mail. These contributions have come from FL, NY, VA, CA, and OR.
For those who did not see the original post-this is a single Mom with two kids living in a GMC in Needles, California(desert). Kids are 7th grade and age 5 She home schools the kids. She spent $8000 on an engive rebuild which did not work. The "mechanic" tried to fix his screw ups but hasn't. She wants to take the GMC to Miguel in Upland to get it right. She has one tire off the rim and many other GMC needs, hence this effort to assist her. She did not ask for help but I am sure she will appreciate the support of fellow GMCers.
There are some new offers of 16.5 tires, more than she needs, but, I will "buy" the extras from her as I need some for the GMCs on my lot. I even have some rotted tires that I don't have replacements for. I know transport is an issue, but I will look on U Ship and other sources to find the best price.
I know she has other needs like a passenger windshield which is expensive, so we need more $$ donations. Thanks to all who have responded-makes you feel good, doesn't it!
