Is there a setting to keep eco drive mode on everytime you start the truck?

FMVSS regulations. The drive modes can alter the performance of the stability/traction control system, so must return to a Normal state upon restart.
Thanks for info as to why. My Honda retains Eco so I guess it's an outlaw. I'm still glad I installed the the mod to do that cycling through the modes for me.

That just means that Honda/Toyota has their Eco mode selector separate from any that modifies ESC performance.

Does it really make that big of a difference. If you drive conservatively won't it be the same mileage?
Eco mode makes a significant different because it changes how the transmission "shifts" and especially changes how fast the vehicle accelerates when using cruise control.

The Normal mode is what was used to establish the EPA rating so it has to be the default. The same is true with other vehicles, my Honda Odyssey defaults to auto engine cut off at idle. We have to turn it off each time we start the vehicle. You can thank the government for this inconvenience.
More like you can thank Volkswagen

Hello, every time my daughter drives the 2024 xl hybrid maverick she has to change the drive mode to eco, is there a way so it starts in eco mode when you turn it on? Thank you
Nope! Sorry…

Well I'll try it. I am getting 42MPG now on average. I'll see if it makes a difference.

Just installed mine today. It took about 20 minutes and works perfect. Great mod for my Mav.
