Yeah, the PO had used a rubber bungee strap on mine. I didn't change it, until Saturday when the cord somehow slipped off and the battery slid back, the positive side terminal contacted the jack (mounted on the fender well) and shorted out the whole deal. Luckily the battery terminal melted completely before staring the truck on fire.
I hooked a jumper cable from the remainder of the positive cable to the remainder of the terminal. Started right up and got me home!
