This would also protect your privacy. You would want to have an old style GPS in your car though.

You know you could also not be using a car, an cycling or using public transport. Using public transport without internet can be a pain but for cycling there are plenty of offline apps that work really well, especially CoMaps.

You can move to a smaller city, at which point using public transport without internet is not so complex. When you have 10 bus lines it is fairly simple to know which goes where.
