Thanks, Ryan. That's a lot. I'll try to unpack it in some reasonable manner. But, so I'll take the one that I like the most. In terms of our confidence, we are absolutely confident that we will one, deliver the $225 million and two, deliver the $300 million on a run rate basis. So if you just look at the first quarter, right, it's $41 million of incremental save. We had $10 million of savings in the fourth quarter. So if you just take that's $51 million, multiply that by four, that's $200 million of the $225 million when you think about it, right, on a run rate basis already. And we took costs out all through the first quarter. So our run rate action number is already trending to where we need to be to deliver the $225 million. We've got additional actions to happen throughout the year, but we are in very, very good shape to deliver the $225 million. We wouldn't be here telling you we're going to deliver the $225 million, if we weren't absolutely positive we're going to deliver it. To give you some idea, and we broke out a little bit on the slide, sort of the percentages, but the really big buckets that if you want to think about the $300 million, 70% of that number is coming from headcount and engineering alone. And then an additional about 10% is related to the consolidation actions around the segments. So if you just get through that, that's 80% of the number in those buckets. We look at the headcount, we've actioned over 70% of the headcount that we have slated to reduce within the organization has already been actioned. The balance of that will be done through the rest of the year with a large chunk of that coming out late in the second quarter. So we have visibility to where these costs are coming out and what are driving and our ability to deliver them. When you think about it, what's really to get your question, hey, was there a lot of fat? What was it? Well, you think about engineering and even some of the headcount, a lot of that's related to the change in how we're addressing the EV business and where we think we need to be sized for where the EV business is today and where it's likely to go. So it's a big, big part of that cost reduction is coming from the shift in strategy and expectation around our EV business. The balance is, yes, we took a really hard look at what we need to run the business and how we can get better at how we're running the business? Especially around the corporate and overhead functions, whether they be physically here at corporate or in the business units themselves.
