I am too old and out of shape to beat around the bush so I'll give it to you straight. If you want sugarcoating go to the candy store, you won't find it here. Sometimes a little good old fashioned honesty is just what the doctor ordered!

I'm planning on moving out of my parents' house soon (hopefully in August), but I have a problem. I currently don't have a car that runs. I bought a Ford Mustang, but it's got a problem with it's wheel bearing and I don't even know when it'll be fixed. The part it needs is on back order and its already been a while. There aren't any taxis in my town and if worse comes to worse, I could ride a bike until my car gets fixed, but is there anything else I can do? Please don't try to talk me into staying with my patents until my car is fixed. I absolutely can't do that for so many reasons. Not the least of which is just that I'm too old to live with them, I need to get my life on track and get started on my plans for my life, I need my freedom and independence, and I need to get away from my unpleasant, controlling, verbally abusive father. There are many, many other reasons, but these are the big ones. (link)
You say your town doesn't have taxi's so I am going to assume it is a relatively small town. Is it possible to walk or ride your bike wherever you need to go? Maybe you could throw a friend a few bucks for gas if you need to get someplace outside of walking distance. Have you considered a motorcycle or moped? They are easy on gas and can get you anywhere a car can go. It is good that you are going ahead with your plans to move out. It sounds like you need a place of you own very badly!Good luck!
