It doesn't matter whether you're jump starting a Van, pickup truck or an economy car, always use cables with the largest possible COPPER wire, 00 gauge or larger.
Smaller cables will often provide enough of a boost to help a battery that's just a little low, but the larger cables work best for the more severe situations.
