    What if I offered you an all inclusive trip to Ulan Bator? Would you be happy then?

    14°f and 70% humidity... No way. That's just insane.

    Passing on a free trip to an exotic local with all the airyag you want?

    I guess you just can't make some people happy.

    So this thread went from serious help to useless banter.

    Why not?
    The useful is over now, and it is up to the hogs to slop it around in the muck.

    Sparking the leads isn't for jumping your car, it's for getting ready to extract information from someone.

    I carry a really long set of heavy duty jumper cables to jump start reefers if needed. Jumped one yesterday. I’ve also jumped the truck off the reefer...
    I’ve also jumped a truck off a small car.... just takes alittle bit.... as others have said...
    My father wouldn’t let me drive a car till I knew how to change a flat tire, jumpstart with cables and how to roll start a manual.
