If you know the homeless couple in the big rusted silver Ford E350/large van that has stayed at Northbridge Walmart and around the general area?

If you know us, you know we aren't your normal homeless drug addicts or criminals.

We are just strapping our boots and trying as hard as we can.

We live by our morals and that is a big reason we are still homeless.

So iykyk us.

We are in bit of a pickle.

We aren't asking for financial help, we are trying so hard to do this on our own.

So what is going on is our van just drove it's last drive.

Simply put.

We started with a power steering leak. Brought it to the mechanic and when he went to replace the gearbox noticed the frame plate was completely rotted out.

I mean, you touch it and the wall crumbles.

We drove 3 miles and went through 1qt of atf(what this van uses for power steering).

She is shaky and wow we will never be driving this van out of here, it will be towed in a flatbed.

I know we will also get a lot of hate in this subreddit.

We aren't asking for a handout!

We are asking for any leads on another van in good condition and at a fair price.

We can downsize if we need to.

We will bring it to our mechanic for an multipoint inspection.(Thankfully they are the best around and actually care about there customers(not that others don't care, just that we are yet to find another one who shows us emotion and bend over backwards to help all of their customers))

Sorry I tend to praise good businesses and no I will not give the name here as this is not to advertise them.

We just need some good leads and help if possible.

Please don't hate just because we are homeless.

We may be chronically homeless, but not for the normal reasons.

Again, we are NOT drug addicts or crooks.

We aren't asking for a handout or begging for money.

We are just asking for help finding/getting a new van.

We lack specific social skills and are reaching out for help in this situation.

Thankfully we are in a state that emphasizes community.

This is among the least helpful responses I can imagine.

Repent? Really? Your magical sky daddy isn’t real and therefore has nothing to offer in this situation.
