HF has their wire rack with 400 ft of wire on sale for $35. Is it any good for general automotive use?

In reply to CGLockRacer:

What wire comes with it? Gauge? Ratings? Strand count? Strand size? Pure Copper?

I read the reviews online, many saying not for house, only for general automotive, so I'm guessing it's multi-stranded as you use solid wiring for housing. I'd want some more info on it, particularly size/amperage rating because that still matters on a car...

sucks. The wire is pretty terrible mostly sheilding, very little actual wire in the core.

The rack is nice once you use up the crap and put good spools on it though ;)

I wouldn't wire anything that was carrying any amperage with it.
