slave cable-what is it?

[gimpyrobb]

I have a 12 footer. I would be real nice if I could come up with a 20 footer.

There was a set of 100 footers on Ebay not too long ago...what the heck would you need to jump start and not be able to get within 100 foot of it?

 

[papabear]

they've been called slave cables since they were invented (i think) - so I guess it is Politically Correct
Who could possibly be offended by a jump start system?
Oh - never mind

As stupid as it sounds to an average joe,,, It is NOT OK to use the term "Slave" cable, OR "Slave those trucks",,, In the NJ Guard, I am suspecting this is nationwide, But it is a"" BIG"" NO"" NO"" In the NJ Guard...No slaves at work here...Oh My..I say grow up...my 2 cents....Randy

I suppose you do not have master and slave drives in your computers in NJ either. When I was in the 101st they were slave cable used by white guys, black guys, and guys of Latin descent. We only had one color. Green.

The 20 footers are bulky, but much appreciated when you can't position the vehicles "ideally" (receptacle to receptacle) to jump them. You can run it under one truck, or in from one end.

THATS FUNNY I heard its only 10% of the people who want reparations actaully have relatives that were actually enslaved. but what the hey might just as well give it to everybody ... ...Randy

Just about every race and nationality has been enslaved at some point throughout history.
