So I was driving the other day and wondering how tracking resistant my route was. Using graphene OS, organic maps and running silent link esim bought with self custody lightning. Any ideas?

Phone still pings towers, and there's another sim/baseband processor in your car pinging towers too if it's not an old car
Old car, Faraday bags and paper maps gonna take on?
Drive to somewhere you don't want to go to mix things up and keep them confused.
Where the ground is soft, jump out of the car mid journey.
Its still trackable, i think its just less on a silver platter but if someone wants to know they can piece everything together.
I think it's all depends on who is gonna track you.
With your current setup I can't track you, or may be most of the people in the world can't track your route. But if a professional hacker or The secret service decides to track you, I think they can.
Although whether they can reach you or not might be a different question I guess...
there's still a risk of local cameras (from traffic lights/businesses/residential) correlated with satellite imagery (surveillance companies like Vantor). So depends on how many cameras there are and how often the region is satellite imaged
False.
From GrapheneOS: "Activating airplane mode will fully disable the cellular radio transmit and receive capabilities, which will prevent your phone from being reached from the cellular network and stop your carrier (and anyone impersonating them to you) from tracking the device via the cellular radio."
