...E-sav...no i really like that...fond memories of purposely melting and cutting an old black Trans-Am firebird plastic model that i had JUST to make it look like Max's car...

...I like that 'mad max' has now become a verb :D Its sounds better than 'murdering' something...Hmm...might just Madmax the HFX :D

back on topic...It appears the Zippy's, and also to some extent the Rhinos, are made with 10 gauge wire? Particularly the 4500+ packs?

Definitely 10ga. wire. My guess is this is their way of compensating for lesser-quality wire. I mean, their 12ga. probably wouldn't stand up to Deans Wet Noodle (12ga.) wire in terms of current handling, for example.
