A worldwide community light show
#SaveCybertruck
Our version of a candlelight vigil.
Elon once pointed out that when owners hold a candlelight vigil for a vehicle, maybe the company should make more of it. So we are holding ours, Cybertruck style. Trucks all over the world, one light show, one video for Tesla to see.
What it should look like
The example video
The example video is on its way. Check back shortly.
How it works
Four steps. One truck. One night.
Sign up and pick a part
Tell us which of the 8 parts your truck will perform. You can pick more than one.
Download and load it
Grab your part, put it on a USB drive, and plug it into your truck. The USB guide walks you through it.
Film your truck
One truck, phone held upright, the whole front in frame, and hold still. Details below.
Send it in
Upload your video right here. We line up every truck into one worldwide show.
The live tally
Eight parts. All equal. All needed.
The show is written for eight trucks side by side, and each part is one truck's role. There is no lead part and no backup part. They are all different, they all matter the same, and the video only works when every one of them is filled. If you are not sure which to pick, choose one marked Needs trucks.
Blue is trucks signed up. Gold is videos received. Updates live.
Put your truck in the show
Free. It takes about a minute.
This creates your free MARQUEE membership, so you can come back, download your part, and upload your video.

Thank you for lighting a candle.
Filming your truck
Keep it simple. Keep it still.
- One truck per video. Just yours.
- Hold your phone upright (vertical), not sideways.
- Get the whole front of the truck in the frame, with a little room around it.
- Do not move, zoom, or walk around. Prop the phone or use a tripod if you can. The steadier the shot, the better.
- Film at night, somewhere dark, so the lights do the talking.
- Camera settings: no higher than 1080p and 24 fps, if you know how to set them. The final video is 4K at 24 fps, and 1080p clips drop right in.
- Let the whole show play, start to finish, in one take.
Videos that do not fit these guidelines may be left out of the final cut.

Why we are doing this
The most revolutionary vehicle ever made deserves a long life.
The Cybertruck is not just a different looking truck. It is the biggest single leap any production vehicle has taken in a hundred years. A stainless steel exoskeleton instead of paint and stamped panels. The industry's first 48-volt electrical architecture, so far ahead that Tesla sent the engineering documents to other automakers. Steer-by-wire with rear-wheel steering that lets a three-ton truck turn like a sports car. 800-volt charging. Enough onboard power to run your house through an outage or a job site all day.
That is why sales volume is the wrong measuring stick. Revolutionary platforms pay off over decades, in the technology they prove and the vehicles they make possible. So we are not asking Tesla to change the Cybertruck. We are asking them to finish it.
Build the Long Range. The original promise was 500 miles. Give the Cybertruck the pack it was born to carry and the last objection disappears.
Build the Work Truck. Single motor, steel wheels, tough seats, and a price a contractor can put five of on the books. The truck that wins fleets wins the category.
The Cybertruck changed what a vehicle can be. Now let it do what trucks do best: outlast everything.
