>Yup! something like oxygen free speaker cables at 100 bucks a foot
i've used thick gauge extension cord for as long as i can remember ;) the only
time ive put money into cables are for video transfer and in PA systems, where
mic feedback is a real concern. my ears can't tell enough of a difference
between expensive 12 or 10g cable vs equivalent gauge reg ol wire ;)

>situations on slippery surfaces
I'll agree here - my experience with my own vehicles limit "slippery" to wet
and rainy... not snowy :( just personal preference,since i leave ABS enabled
most of the time on my vehicles.. and it rarely rarely activates, however this
past snowfall in ny? yup. abs fuses pulled.i can't stand sliding halfway into
an intersection at a snails pace as the abs is just put puttering, fighting for
something to grip, rather than the tires digging in the soft pile and stopping
at the light.
