Question Cooling system bleeder valve??

So, do our cars have one or not??! I drained my coolant and replaced, but pretty sure I have air in the system. I've read some cars have a valve to help bleed air until coolant comes out, but I can't find one anywhere. Can someone confirm whether we do or do not have them?? If we do...where the hell is it?!

I believe that our bleeder valve is the radiator cap.

well, that would certainly explain why I couldn't find one. I think I finally got the air out (or most of it).
