If I had a friend who stepped up to the plate, no matter how reluctantly, I would feel compelled to thank him for doing so. I would explain that while it might be an insignificant amount of damage to him, that I had put a lot of money into my pride and joy, and that it meant a lot to me that it was kept up, and that he stepped up.
Do we serve God, or Mamon ? I expect believers to seek their answers from the source. Perhaps the OP should do that now, as this thread seems to be degenerating, and smells a bit like old fish. The Son of Man once said that each of us would know in his own heart what was right.
Well, in your heart, how does this feel ? It doesn't quite feel right to me, so I am putting that out there. A little courtesy, a little kindness go a long way in this world. If our interactions with others serve as a mirror to our souls, I would suggest that the OP go to the mirror. If he likes what he sees, then what does it matter what any of us think, and why are we talking about it ?
We arrive here with nothing. In the end we leave with nothing. So while you can be buried in a truck, I don't think you can take it with you. And while you can leave a truck to your children's children, it will probably be an anachronism to them. They are probably going to prefer clean air and water, and a well tended planet. But Oh, Look at that SHINE !
