0:00 Who is making this appeal?
Mr. Musk, help us drive the future. A personal appeal from a proud Cash-Wa driver in Kearney, Nebraska.
Every delivery begins with a driver, a dedicated team, and a truck that people depend on. On behalf of Performance Food Group, team leader in the trucking industry. After more than 20 years in the trucking industry, I know how much dependable equipment and supportive leadership matter.
0:21 What makes Cash-Wa a good place to drive?
Since joining Cash-Wa Distributing in February 2025, I have found something worth celebrating: a workplace where safety comes first, teamwork means something, and drivers feel valued.
Through the transition into the Performance Foodservice family, I have seen that spirit continue — from the technicians who keep us moving, to the dispatchers who respect our limits, and the leaders who understand the importance of getting us home safely.
0:48 Why the Tesla Semi?
Mr. Elon Musk, if this message reaches you, I would love to see your Tesla Semi become part of our next chapter. PFG’s promised investment in new trucks gives us reason to be excited about the road ahead.
For drivers like me who admire the Tesla Semi, it also inspires a bigger possibility: helping bring the future of trucking to America’s heartland.
1:06 What is being asked?
If Tesla has previously used Semi trucks available, would you consider donating one or more for our company’s leadership to evaluate? Any potential donation would need company approval and planning for charging, routes, maintenance, and daily operations. But the conversation could begin with one generous opportunity.
1:28 Who is behind the request?
Behind this request are hardworking people: drivers, shop technicians, dispatchers, safety professionals, and families who depend on us coming home.
One truck could open a conversation. One act of generosity could inspire an entire team. One opportunity could help us drive toward the future. Mr. Musk, thank you for considering this driver’s heartfelt request.
