Tesla semi delivery event is today.

Fulfilling contractional obligations shouldn't even be an "event". It shouldn't come a year later than promised.
I'd imagine if the trucks aren't delivered today, Musk is going to jail for fraud.
Other electric semi companies have delivered dozens of trucks without issue or fuss; what's holding up Tesla?

I think it was a limited cell supply if I remember correctly, that is starting to lift somewhat or is not the limiting factor anymore.

So, they took their customer's money and lied to them after they made demands from their suppliers. The didn't update those promises even when the supplier told them "wouldn't be possible".
Seems like robbing from Peter to pay Paul honestly

I don't understand what you are saying. "after they made demands from their suppliers." this part in particular.
Are you saying Tesla broke some contracts with respect to Semi deliveries or something like that?

Good. For being 3 years late and being beaten to market by other EV semis, it needs to be at least as good as Musk said back at the first reveal - "cheaper than rail" etc.
I don't want Musk to fail. It would be amazing if everything he said was true, but he needs to stop lying all the time.
