Ummm.... Did the Big 3 send aid to Japan after the Sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway? I dont dont feel like looking it up but I'm pretty sure they didnt. When I go to purchase a car, it really doesnt matter to me which car manufacturer is the most noble. There most important factors: Reliability, Value, MPG, etc.
