What is your definition of terrible gas mileage? My 2022 Bronco with the 2.3L EcoBoost and manual transmission is averaging lifetime (8,400 miles so far) at 20.8 MPG. I'm ecstatic over that number. The more powerful 2.7L EcoBoost Bronco brings nearly as good mileage with the 10-speed automatic. I'd expect the '25 4Runner to be near the same or maybe better, though it only has a 8-speed auto.

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."
