In terms of electric field shielding, if you are in a faraday cage,
anything connected to the cage is grounded (unless you are worried
about fields on the outside of the cage).
As usual, for RF the ground should be a strap ideally less than 8 times
longer than wide. And you can still get magnetic coupling.
Some people have claimed that grounding with carbon straps to the road is
helpful... the most obvious reason would be it will help prevent
static shocks when you get out of the car, but there could be other effects
like ionization of the air.
