Mr Bentley may be right, or he may be talking out of an orifice not intended 
for that purpose.  I have no wiring diagrams for the USA models.
 
However - on the European models, the wire is spliced.  A 16sqmm black wire 
runs from the starter to the alternator, and a 25sqmm black wire runs from 
there to a splice point behind the right of the dashboard.  From this splice 
point, a 35sqmm wire runs back to the battery and two 6sqmm wires run off to 
the fusebox area to power the car.

I have the European diagrams (partly hand-written) as ZIPped .TIFs if you need 
them.
