In this case, get the moneygram back from her, then take a taxi or an Uber, or have a friend or relative take you to YOUR bank. Deposit it in your account, and see if it ever comes back in the next 30 days. Sometimes a landlord has to go that "extra mile" to get paid. And, yes, you may have the rent due on the 1st, but as long as you have a grace period in your lease, a judge will probably rule that it's actually due by the 5th. The next lease you sign with her, take out any mention of a grace period. Then it is TRULY due on the 1st, and late on the 2nd.

About the car------it's none of your business what a tenant drives-----just don't let her get away with telling you she will be late on her rent because she now has monthly car payments to make. Start your eviction procedures on the 6th of any month if you didn't get the rent by then.
