The auto engine stop/start (ESS) feature will be on which engines/trims? Will you be able to disable it on all of them?

I know it's on the PreRunner (image below) but I've seen other videos with the Pro and Trailhunter where that button is missing. I assume those were the models without ESS but can't be sure.

I have it but it never engages and I don't ever turn it off with the button. It takes ALOT of foot pressure to engage it. As you press the brake pedal it first has to travel past a certain point to engage the brake hold feature. You have to continue to press past that point to engage stop/start.

The only time mine ever engages is when I intentionally press hard enough to make it happen. The only time I do that is when I roll up to a major intersection that just turned red for my direction of travel. Those lights can take 2-2.5 minutes so I choose to save the gas sometimes.
