Tesla CEO Elon Musk said Thursday that production of its Semi truck has begun, and deliveries to one customer, Pepsi, will occur in December.

Pepsi said in a statement Friday that the trucks will support its Frito-Lay plant in Modesto California, and its Pepsi beverage plant in Sacramento. Neither Musk nor Pepsi said how many trucks would be delivered. “We are looking forward to this next step in our PepsiCo Positive journey and will provide more details once we have taken delivery,” PepsiCo spokesperson Andrea Foote said, referring to the company’s sustainability efforts.

Musk made the announcement following the news Tuesday that he’s revived his original proposal to buy Twitter for $44 billion. Musk had previously attempted to terminate the deal last month, claiming Twitter violated the agreement by misrepresenting the number of spam and fake bot accounts on the social media platform. Musk, the world’s richest man, has sold about $15 billion in Tesla stock this year, but it’s still not clear if Musk has sufficient liquid funds to close the Twitter deal.
