What if you have an ATV that uses no fuel but can't carry anything? Then you could have ATV-only access areas like narrow cliff passes and the like. Would also solve the problem of the main vehicle getting stuck in the middle of nowhere with no fuel.
What if there are drones that can transfer materials between locations? Like, once you get a water station up and running, it can supply other points of interest with water.
Fundamentally, you tell a truck to drive to a location. At that location you get off and explore. You pick up what's useful, make upgrades/repairs to the vehicle, then move on. While the truck is driving, you can organize/craft/sleep. The game is over when the player secures a means of leaving the planet.
