I work on new cars as a job and have been pondering how to make a user friendly way to deactivate the annoying features they come out with these days. Most of the features will turn back on with a key cycle. Im thinking the best way would be to tap into each of the off buttons with a controller box. On ignition on, the box cycles through a set output procedure to turn all those features off. It could be a tidy install behind the dash thats set and forget. It also could work for turning features on that default to off like cruise control and auto hold on some cars. Most of the switchs are around 5v so easy and cheap to drive.

Follow the same with 2018 4runner. Yes, 2018 might be a better vehicle (arguably, since 4runner is still old school and technology), but old cars strong and reliable, no desire to replace them with cheap new cars. Rust protection is relatively cheap and simple, so it is a good investment. Even 1993, no perforated rust, no any rust on panels.
