Excess Positive Battery cable - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What's with the excess battery cable on these things? In particular, the one that is wadded up above the master cylinder. On the 89 K5 I had, I thought it was just extra from the previous idiot (i mean owner) but my 91 Burb is that way, just like almost every truck of the same era that I have seen. I want to trim it back so I can loom it with the rest of the wires, but if that hand loop serves some kind of purpose, I don't want to hack it up. Thanks.

You can just barely see what I'm talking about in the top right of this pic of my K5.
