For the Pi as an access point, it's easier to just install OpenWRT on it. As a USB drive, you're likely to have issues with the SD card in a vehicle. Probably better to run on something that has eMMC storage and a dedicated SATA port instead of relying on USB. For installing Nvidia and CUDA drivers, i use Chimera OS for gaming. It's now an appliance that can be accessed from the TV for game streaming, or we can sit directly in front of my color correct display with keyboard and mouse. All updates are atomic so there's no cruft that requires a reinstall every few years.
