The truck already left the line. 24 September is the hall's day, not the truck's birthday.

The Tesla Semi account named 24 September for the Sparks hall. The first high-volume truck left that 1.7-million-square-foot line on 29 April, about five months before the ceremony. Nameplate is 50,000 Class 8 trucks a year; Priestley at ACT Expo said many thousands before the end of 2026, then ramp like hell. The truck was already a truck. The hall is getting its day.
