Tesla Delivers Its First Semi. I Have Questions

The portion where Musk talked about the truck was full of boasts and claims, but had little real information.

Elon Musk and Tesla had a big show and party to celebrate delivering the first Tesla Semi to a customer. The portion where Musk talked about the truck, however, was full of boasts and claims, but had little real information. The only thing we learned, in fact, is that, according to Musk, the truck can have a gross vehicle weight of 81,000 pounds and go 500 miles on a charge. That tells us little useful information, however. So I have questions.
