Get a battery wire from my start battery to cab

Same procedure with every car.  Look under the car to see where the OEM wires go into the cab.  Usually, there's already a big rubber grommet which you can easily slide another wire through alongside.  Worse comes to worse, zip tie your wire run alongside the OEM wire run, drill a hole next to the OEM hole, and use a grommet. 

 

What are you trying to do?  If you need extra power in the cab, you should be able to simply add a fuse at the fuse box, instead of running a new circuit from the battery.

Don't know if it'll help with your Gen1, but here's the Gen2 install insructions for the factory tow hitch wiring kit that includes recommended routing for the power supply wire through an opening at the base of the A pillar. Note: Transit Connect starts on page 20 since the instructions cover multiple vehicles.
