RSS makes it possible to keep up with your favorite web sites (like UCAN.org) in an automated manner that's easier than checking manually. Basically, you get whatever you want sent to you automatically, without having to constantly go to a web page looking for updates.
RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication" and is used to publish frequently updated content such as news, blogs, or podcasts. A "feed" is an RSS document that contains either a summary of content from a web site or the full text.
RSS content can be read using software called a "feed reader" or an "aggregator" (see list below). You can subscribe to a feed by entering the feed's link into the software reader or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that starts the subscription process. The software reader checks your subscribed feeds regularly for new content, downloading any updates that it finds.
The following aggregators are used as examples only, they are not endorsed by UCAN.

Sherri...my brother recently purchased a "2007" Chevy 2500 4x4 Duramax as it was leftover for whatever reason and had only 20 or so miles. He got what he thought was a pretty good deal even though other family members tried to persuade him to buy a 2008 or hold out for a 2009 but he was determined to buy the "2007". Whenever he gave the vehicle information to his insurance company, the VIN came back as a 2006 model truck. Whenever he signed the contract, the sales management team at Mike Young Motor Company in Winnie, TX informed my brother that there were some additional paperwork my brother would need and if he could come by the dealership early the next week and pick up the package with all of his paperwork. My brother agreed but when he returned to the dealership the next week, they told him that he already had all the paperwork. He has nothing showing that Mike Young Motor Company represented the truck as a 2007 model. Sounds like a premeditated misrepresentation by Mike Young Motor Company. I wouldn't buy a pack of chewing gum from them or deal with Chrysler Financial.
Car Dealer Fraud
Hello,
I purchased a vehicle in Feb 08' from Mike Young Motor Company of Winnie, TX. I traded in my 07' Chevy Colorado for 07' Dodge Nitro that was suppose to be new yet with a discount of $6,000 off MSRP. It sounded like a deal and I proceeded with buying yet never received my contract the day of purchasing and had to rush to work... They delivered the car to my job but never brought the contract or my spare key. I went months calling their business asking for my copy of the contract. I finally got tired of being ignored and requested the contract from the Chrysler Financing that carried my loan mainly to review the sale numbers... It is now August of 08' and I just realized that the contract VIN # does not match the vehicle I am driving. I have been paying a note and insurance on a vehicle I don't even have. Also the vehicle is marked as new on the Contract and exactly wut I wanted yet when the car was delivered it had 7,000+ miles. This makes sense seeing the BIG DISCOUNT this is a Demo from what the sales woman had told me over the phone. I believe this to be a breach of contract and would not rather do business at all with these people. Where do I stand...
