I have some wire like that that came in a trailer wiring kit. Absolute garbage that corrodes easy and I've had break on my trailer 2-3 times.
Pulled it off and got a good kit.
And for some reason, saved some of it for temporary jumpers and such
In fact, it's this green and brown stuff that I've been using to temporarily run the fun button in my burb, for a year lol.
It's coming out while the fenders are off and it's easier to get in there

Apo Sound is the brand. I am sure it is Chinesium.

The truck fired up, no big deal. Warming up before the parade. 22* plus the breaze. So it will be really cold.

 

[ktmoutfront]

The truck ran for 3.5 hours without a glitch. 15* out, so we left it running before the parade.

Good news glad you sorted it out.

Apo Sound

quick search says it's copper coated aluminum

= grade crap . . Scrapped more of that stuff cause of severe corrosion.

 

[ktmoutfront]

Yep. I was looking it up at supper. Junk stuff. Just because something is free, doesn't mean it should be used.

Yeah I didn't know it was thing until I went to buy jumper cables and found really cheap ones at harbor freight and they also had some more expensive ones for the same size.
I stopped and started reading everything on the packaging of both, then grabbed the boxes and the weight difference was obvious.
I ended buying the more expensive copper cables

The CCA wire is super common in cheap car audio. I always use oxygen free copper.

I go for OFC or electrically tinned copper.

I have new spools of ETC for the boat. That is all i used until i got the free stuff. And will be used in the future.

Know anyone with a sheet metal brake??

Maybe he likes being able to drive standing up.

 

[ktmoutfront]

I have stood in there and changed my pants.

 

[Wes Harden]

I am sure even with a 4-6" chop he can still stand up to change his pants

I stand up when backing it into its parking spot. The mirrors suck. The drivers window is far from the seat, so I stand to look out the window.

You could put a urinal in the dash and cut rest stops in half
