Lightning protection?
Anyone have lightning protection on their rig? If so what do you use and where is it mounted? We are the only metal object for miles lol.

The rubber tires on a car are not going to insulate you from a lightning strike, they are way too thin to resist the voltage of a lightning bolt.
True enough.. If lightening can jump for miles through the sky, a few inches of rubber sure isn't going to slow it down!
No doubt! Faraday Cage
This is why motorcycles and convertibles are prone to getting hit with injuries and death, while people in hard tops are usually OK, buildings are better, however watch out being around windows...
Just check the lightning stats.
