It's 49.99 for 25 ft of red and 59.99 for 25 ft of black at tsc online. It's not gonna be much cheaper than that anywhere. But if u don't need that much get it buy the ft carquest in Millington should have it too.

Places that install plows usually just pull all the wiring when they do upgrades, might be able to get it cheap that way.  I did.

 I ran 2 batteries in the back and in my case 4g wouldn't supply enough amps. Burned up 1 starter trying to get er to fire the first night. I had to upgrade to 2g wire and had no problems. I use 2g to supply the starter and 4 g for my engine and chassis grounds.

As others said... welding cable.  Nice and flexible and not too expensive.

No one thought of going to a car audio/customizing shop? They sell by the foot and have whatever gauge you want. I remember getting 0 gauge back in my car audio days.
