    Hi, I would like to make it so my Tacoma always turns the power inverter on when the car is running. Instead of having to press the inverter button every time I turn the car on. Is there an easy way to do this?

    Right... I just want it to always be on without pushing the button.

    You would need some kind of IC to do the same thing the switch does when you press it each time you turn the key on which is momentarily bridge Pin 3 (Green) and Pin 6 (Violet) of the switch.
    No such thing as "wiring" it to be on all the time.

    Is there a way to hookup the Inverter DC power to be on a wire that always gives power when the ignition is on and just not use the button at all?

    That's not how it works, with the stock inverter it has to see a switch input each time the key is cycled for it to turn on.
