00:00The New York Auto Show really got things started for the auto industry back in 1900 at the old
00:20Madison Square Garden. We had 69 different vehicle manufacturers represented in that first show,
00:29which is more manufacturers than we actually have today.
00:40Electrification is still somewhat new, or connectivity, self-driving, obviously there's lots of things that are going on.
00:49But the show has just about something for everybody.
00:54And that's the beauty of the show. If you're into hyper cars or sports cars, performance vehicles,
01:02you know, that's there. If you're looking for SUVs, family fun vehicles.
01:07I think the auto industry has really gone about taking a look at the customer base that's out there
01:14and really has evolved into offering products that everybody's looking for.
