OK, so we all know to be careful about camping around trees (esp. gums) because they may drop limbs on you in the middle of the night. We also know that next to a tree (again, esp. a gum) is not the best place to be in a lightning storm.

My question relates more specifically to when there's not all that many trees about and you're in a camper trailer. When lightning comes a-calling in the outback - you know, flat-as, nothing around you for miles - where is the safest place to be? In your tent, in the car?

Thanks guys :)
