Where is the fuel tank cap switch on the Raptor?

The Raptor does not have a mechanical fuel tank cap switch; it features a sensor-based electromagnetic lock. Simply approach the vicinity of the fuel tank cap, and you can open it manually. The dimensions of the Raptor F150 are: length 5910mm, width 2192mm, height 1992mm, with a wheelbase of 3708mm and a fuel tank capacity of 136 liters. The Raptor F150 is equipped with a 3.5T twin-turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 280 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 672 Newton-meters. It is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The front suspension type is an independent double-wishbone, while the rear suspension is a solid axle non-independent suspension.
Last time I drove my friend's new Raptor, I also spent a while searching for it. Turns out there's a small button near the driver's left foot, hidden on the plastic panel below the far left side of the dashboard with a fuel tank icon and small arrow. The older models have even more discreet placement - you have to crouch down and look near the fuse box below the steering wheel for a black lever with a fuel tank symbol. If you can't find either of these, try pressing the unlock button on your key fob twice consecutively - many modern vehicles link the fuel door to central locking. By the way, there's actually an emergency release cable hidden in the bed toolbox, but you'll need to remove the left-side trim panel to access it - most people would never guess this design feature exists.
