I think of it as a computer that constatly feeds data over which I have no control, so I always remove or disable center console computers in my vehicles.
Today every (recent) car calls home. The console is usually just the link to the real computer in your car, so disabling the console has little if no effect.
On a sidenote… Do you also not use a phone?
Yeah, get a bootloader unlocked pixel phone and you can install new operating system such as GrapheneOS or CalyxOS, which are android systems built upon the last version of Android from the time it was still open source. Then, you can turn on and off Cellular Service, Wifi, Bluetooth, and more as needed. You can disable the microphone and camera, too.
If you don’t want to be tracked, you don’t have to be. Also, the phones will last longer that way as Google would have cut support for older phones sooner than Calyx.
You can also use TorBrowser as a free method of hiding all of your site traffic from the service providers.
If you can’t be arsed, most phones can also just be shut down outside of use.
Aside from that, the most you can do is illegally spoof a number.
You are confusing the things you do on your mobile device with actual location tracking. GrapheneOS limits the information sent Home, to Google et al. It does not provide any protection from triangulation of your operator, as your telco modem has a unique identifier.
The only way to get around that is by turning off your phone and pulling out the battery (certain phone models keep your telco modem on even though your phone is off). This kind of defeats the purpose of having a mobile device.
Unless of course you’re also a low-level hardware programmer in possession of the telco modem specs, api’s and the necessary equipment to update your telco modem firmware.

Lmao this guy doesn’t know how to secure a phone.
Oh cool, tell me then, your telephone operator has no way to track your phone?
