purpose of roof lights?
Why do 3/4 and above pickups have a row of lights on the roof, but not the 1/2 ton? What purpose do the lights serve, other than working-man's "bling"?

As far as I know, any vehicle with a body width of over 80" requires them. That's why the F150 Raptor and the Hummer H2 have them. Not sure about weight requirements, but most 250/2500s and SRW 350/3500s I've seen do not have them. They are an option, at least they were when my dad bought his 2000 F250.
The Raptor's I have seen do not have roof lights.
They are on the Raptor, but not on the roof. They front 3 ID lights are in the grill. The outer front lights are just above the bumper at the outer corners. The rear center ID lights are built in the the CHMSL. The outer two lights are just below the tail lights.
Thank you. Learn something new everyday. But this begs the question. Seems like this regulation is a huge waste of taxpayer money when the ordinary driver does not know what this means (me included).
From now on I will make sure I hug the shoulder of the road when I see three lights. :)
