The end point your electrical circuit is not the chassis. It is not the frame of the vehicle. If you are running of alt power, it is the alt case. If you are running on battery power, it is the battery that gave you the power. So when they say keep your grounds as short as possible, having a 6 inch wire to the chassis of a unibody car, way deep in the trunk, is not a short path. Yes your wire is short, but the path, through pieces of welded steel, is not a short path. In all honesty, a wire is almost guaranteed to be a better conductor than your chassis. How much better depends on the amount of current you are pushing. The more current you push, the more you would gain by having a dedicated ground wire.</p></blockquote><p></p>
