| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, we're up and we're here and today we are talking about Tesla finally |
| 0:10.8 | reintroducing the Long Range All-Wheel Drive Model 3 to the design studio in the United |
| 0:16.3 | States. |
| 0:17.3 | We'll also talk about the Fed's interest rate decision and press conference, got some |
