US Oil filter location?

Can anyone tell me where the oil filter is located? I can't see it, unless it needs to be on a lift.
Thanks

if you have the tow package, then you'll have to remove the air inlet that is on the front air dam to get access to the oil filter above it. hand twist three buttterfly screws... two in front, one rear.
