part in making this right. number one, should you decide to trade your tdi, the value of the ww will be calculated at the value prior to the epa finding and some seconds, should you trade your car and it will plant 50 trees in the customers' name. remember, we have not heard from volkswagen america as to how it will address this scandal with consumers. while volkswagen says that some half million vehicles could be impacted, the vin s are still unknown and dealerships don't have any information at this point. you'll want to contact your dealership to know if it's doing something similar. tomorrow the top rock festival comes back to jamming java in vienna. it will benefit the elementary school in fairfax county and the music love on maple avenue. >> you can hear some of their music and just search cora kelly
