The Black Volga

I came across this interesting story on hauntevehicles.com, and it shouldn't surprise me that there is a haunted vehicle out there in the world. We have haunted houses, dolls, roads, even clothing.

The story takes place in the 1960s and 1970s Soviet Union during a time when life was lived in constant fear, the Cold War was looming, and the government was failing. But, another fear struck the people of the Soviet Union, a mythical, legendary vehicle that evoked sheer terror at the very mention of it: The Black Volga.

The Black Volga was well known across the nation as stories were whispered and imaginations aroused. Even to this day, no one knows who was driving the high-end limousine. Some believed it was driven by a priest or nuns, while others believed that it was driven by Satan worshippers or even the devil himself. Regardless of the mystery, when the Black Volga appeared, bad things happened.

The sleek car was a very high-end limousine with white curtains and rims, and it would appear to manifest from nowhere. At times the side mirrors were actually horns. When it was seen, many reports show children missing, and many theorized the vehicle had something to do with it. If anyone were brave enough to challenge the sinister Volga, they would be dead within 24 hours. Why the vehicle picked children as its prey no one is sure, no one was ever able to get close enough and live to tell the tale. But one thing is for certain, nothing could stop it.

The legend of the Black Volga spread through Mongolia, Belarus, Ukraine, Poland, and Russia. An interesting side note is seeing that this type of vehicle was the most lavish and expensive available at the time it was typically driven and/or owned by the Communist Party and Soviet political officials who thrived on the fears of their country’s people.

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen Since the 80s and through the 90s, movies involving car dealerships shined a negative light on car salesmen and painted a stereotypical picture. These comedic characters came off as shady, sleazy, pushy, and willing to do anything to make the sale. The News Wheel has listed the Top 5 Worst Car Salesmen from Movies and they're some pretty bad ones. Here are my three favorites from the list. Rudy Russo from the 1980 film Used Cars . A young Kurt Russell portrays Rudy Russo, a state Senate hopeful. In order to get a $10,000 campaign investment from used car lot owner Luke Fuchs, Rudy must help him sell some cars to keep his business up and running. While doing so, Rudy uses standard stereotypical used car salesmen techniques like cheesy commercials, fast-talking, and pressure selling. He even baits a customer from a competing lot by using a $10 bill on a fishing line to get the man to cross the street. Joey O’Brien from Cadillac Man . The ...

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America Over the years, Route 66 has provided travelers, dreamers, and renegades with an experience no other route can give. Established November 11, 1926, covered 2,448 miles and originally ran through eight states starting from Chicago, Ill to Santa Monica, CA and quickly began to be one of the most popular highways in America. It soon became known by other names such as The Mother Road, Will Rogers Highway, and was spotlighted in John Steinbeck’s classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. When The Great Depression hit in 1929 over 200,000 traveled to Californa seeking reprieve from The Dust Bowl and used The Mother Road to escape. Some traveled west with the promise of work. With barren land surrounding them, farmers and their families gathered essentials and traveled west in hopes of work. Towns, mom and pop businesses, and service stations along the highway survived The Great Depression by catering to travelers with supplies, fuel, and car parts. Res...

Williams Group Auto - Seatbelt Statistics | Used Car Dealership in Abilene

  The Importance of Wearing Your Seatbelt When doing our research into buying a new vehicle, we shop around, go for a test drive, look into the car's history, find repair records, and other countless things. A few other things we look for might not be as important in the purchase process but more of a personal preference, such as color, whether it has Bluetooth, a sunroof, and so on. Either way, it is safe to say that we all want the same thing, to feel safe in our vehicle. When it comes to our safety, seat belts are one of the most important devices. They are important in our everyday lives to us and our passengers. While some incidents are rear-ended accidents, others are scarier. And what is more frightening is that in 2016 there were 37,461 people killed in motor accidents, and 48% of them were not wearing a seat belt. Not wearing or improperly wearing a seat belt can have fatal consequences, and to spread awareness, the State of Texas introduced the program Click it, or Ticket...
