There are north ends of south bound mules on facetube and craigslist. Don't let that discourage you

I would have told the guy.... $25 deposit required to take the part home

I think you might be able to get a tax break if you do that as well. I have given a car and a couple trucks away to young kids that need some help getting started in life. My friends think I’m crazy but at the end of the day the day the vehicles owed me nothing and it was happy to help them out.

Tax deductions note
The good thing is next to no one "needs" to give things to charity because a married couple filing joint gets a flat $31,500 deduction. So giving to charity, home interest deduction, and other charities gains most nothing.

The bad, many charities are having a really hard time because of it. Things are rough, giving to them is a big help

I never give based on deduction, but I guess rich people do. I hate being in the financial donut hole. I'm not poor nor rich enough to exploit the system.

Only one truck, but four times we have had people live with us for a year or so for the same reasons. Just got a text an hour ago from one thanking us for being parents when she needed them and 'raising' both her and her kid. The 4 year old kid is 18 today.
