I've been using GrapheneOS for over 2 years now. Love it. I cannot help but feel I'm missing out when i go on a road trip and have to constantly glance at my phone (OsmAnd~), instead of using the perfectly good display built into my vehicle.

Any good alternatives? I've considered using an old phone, or recently I've seen Android "AI Boxes". Both connect to the internet through bluetooth/hotspot on your phone. Not sure of the privacy implications or amount of Google in both.

Not looking for 3rd party screens or phone mounts as options.

Not really feasible if you need to use the touch screen of your car for something else, e.g. climate control.
