What is your question?
Can the 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat engine stop/start feature be disabled for an extended period of time and then reenabled - without effecting other systems? Turning the feature off everytime the engine is started is a hassle.

Hello, i'm nearly certain that this feature must be defeated every time you start the vehicle. You can check with your local Ford dealership service department to see if it is a programmable parameter, but my strong guess is that it is not. Auto manufacturers add this feature to incrementally improve fuel economy to vehicles in an effort to reach required economy standards set by the government. If you were able to defeat the feature for a long period, it would invalidate the fuel economy attained in testing and hinder the needed certification requirements.
