<VV> Moving battery to the trunk

If you re-read the post you get the impression that it was only suggesting  
the Ford relay be 
activated during the startup.
 
You don't need that heavy cable any other time.

Be  careful which "Ford-type starter relay" you use. Many are not rated  for
100% duty cycle (i.e. "on" all the time). Read the specs on the box  before
picking one brand or another.
