    Prepare yourselves: the beast is coming October 26. Just in case you missed it, Tesla (NASDAQ:$TSLA) CEO Elon Musk tweeted late Wednesday evening about Tesla’s new semi truck. And after months of anticipation, Elon Musk finally set a date for its launch, He did, however, leave it open for delays.

    “Tesla semi truck unveil & test ride tentatively scheduled for Oct 26th in Hawthorne. Worth seeing this beast in person. It’s unreal,” Musk tweeted.

    Some might find Elon Musk’s announcement disappointing, as the unveiling of the model was scheduled for September. That said, Musk called it “seriously next level” back in April, which means that it’s very likely to be worth the wait.

    Last week, Morgan Stanley analysts said that the semi truck is the biggest catalyst for the trucking sector in decades. They also said Tesla’s new semi — which is expected to be electric — would have autonomous-driving capabilities.
