It's funny. I have a 2022 Bronco with ASS. The defeat switch is right on the dash level with the manual shift knob, so my habit has been to hit the switch off when I hand the shift knob at first shift. But sometimes I forget. I drive the Bronco maybe once a week, so it's hard to lock into the habit to hit the defeat button. But the funny part is, unless the battery is fully charged or the AC is on, the ASS does not activate, so most of the time the Bronco doesn't shut off when I drive it. Also, in my neck of the woods, there is little traffic and few stop lights or stop signs and with clutch-in in 1st gear the ASS doesn't activate.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
