Here are the photos of my truck. There is a picture of the mirror showing that it is a 'power fold' mirror (as is the passenger side). I have attached another photo showing that there is certainly no label stating 'power fold' on the switch.

I'm still clueless as to what could be happening. Basically I just want to know if my vehicle came with power windows or not. If it did and they're not working I'll go to the dealership. If it doesn't have power folding mirrors...well, the mirror still works, lol.

Power fold regular mirrors have been available on Fx4s, lariats, raptors, Harley Davidson since 2011 and king ranches and platinums since 2009 or 2010.
Must have been thinking about tow mirrors since thats what I have

I went and checked my truck. It does have a symbol on the mirror right below the convex mirror that says powerfold.
Since you don't have the button I'm gonna say with 99% certainty you don't have power-fold. What I'm assuming happened was the mirror itself was replaced and they put one on for a truck with power fold.
I'd have the dealer check or check the VIN on the VIN checker and see if it was equipped on your truck from factory. You could have the motor in your mirrors and just not have the proper switch on your door. Although, to me, that's the more unlikely out come!

ya, who knows. Just for kicks I went in an used my vin to get the window sticker. Window sticker shows the vehicle as being equipped with power/heated mirrors so I guess something isn't working correctly. I'll call the dealership for warranty work tomorrow. Wish me luck!

From what I understand power/heated means that it's power adjusting not folding. Talk to the dealer tho. Mine says "body CL PWR FLD HTD SIGNL MIR" on my actual sticker. I attached a pic for reference. Don't mind the 3k for the Nav. Lol
For some reason 2 loaded. :/

Hmm, looks like you may be right. Here is a screenshot from this webpage that generates the window sticker. I don't know how accurate it is.

Yup, that means your mirror was probably replaced at some point with one from a truck with power fold. Is it tough to fold in manually? or easy...mine pretty much wont fold manually, I have to hit the button.

It doesn't take much to fold them in. Certainly doesn't feel like you're pushing against a motor of any sort.
