00:07for its semi-truck. In a post on X, Musk shared a teaser of the Roadster that showed what appears
00:13to be a front LED light bar and said, see you next week. Tesla has not clarified whether the
00:19teaser's X references SpaceX, which Musk has previously said could provide cold gas thrusters
00:25for the vehicle. Musk called the Tesla Semi a revolutionary truck that will offer megawatt
