In this episode, we dive into an incredible story of resilience as a Rivian R1T faces the ultimate test: surviving Hurricane Helene. Local Asheville resident and R1T owner Michael Cusick shares how his Rivian R1T withstood floodwaters, being displaced over 150 feet, and still booted up as if nothing happened.
Tune in for Michael's insights, survival stories, and a closer look at how Rivian's engineering sets it apart in the EV world!
As part of this episode, we’d like to highlight the incredible work being done by Beloved Asheville, a local charity supporting flood survivors in the region. Many families are still without homes and camping in their front yards due to flood damage. Beloved Asheville is working tirelessly to provide warm housing, food, and other essential services as we approach Thanksgiving.
Our guest, Michael, will be volunteering with Beloved Asheville this week, helping to hand out food at their distribution site on Thanksgiving. If you’d like to support their efforts, or learn more about how you can help, visit BelovedAsheville.com.
