Built to Conquer: OVS Expedition Truck Cap Design & Construction

Every trail-tested element of the OVS Expedition Truck Cap has been engineered with one purpose: to meet the rugged demands of modern overlanders.

Designed specifically for the 2021–2026 Ford F-150 with a 5.5 ft bed, this waterproof truck cap combines unmatched durability, intelligent design, and user-first engineering.

Let’s break down why this is the ultimate truck cap for your F-150 adventure rig.

No-Drill Installation

  • Forget complicated setups and permanent modifications. The OVS Expedition Cap features a true no-drill installation system, allowing you to mount the cap securely without compromising your truck's factory integrity. This means no holes, no rust risk, and no warranty issues: just a clean fit that’s ready for the long haul.

Marine-Grade Stainless Construction

  • Crafted from marine-grade stainless steel, this cap is built to resist corrosion even in the harshest environments, be it salty coastal air, wet forests, or snowy mountain passes.
  • Engineered for endurance and efficiency, this advanced material offers outstanding toughness without excess bulk. This is perfect for adventurers who count on gear that performs in the harshest conditions.

Textured Powder Coat Finish

  • Not just for looks, the textured black powder coat finish delivers superior protection against chips, scratches, UV rays, and rust. It offers a rugged, low-gloss finish that hides trail dust and road grime, while perfectly complementing the F-150's rugged aesthetic.

True Fit Technology

  • This is a tailored solution designed to meet the unique demands of serious overlanders. Not a universal fit. True Fit Technology ensures that the cap hugs the contours of your 2021–2026 Ford F-150 5.5 ft bed with millimeter precision. This results in a flush, wind-resistant fit that enhances your truck’s aerodynamics and gives it the polished, purpose-built look of a factory install.

Built-In Air Vent

  • Interior airflow matters, especially when storing gear, pets, or sleeping inside.
  • The built-in air vent ensures constant ventilation to prevent condensation, mildew, and heat buildup inside the cap.
  • Whether you’re transporting gear or using the cap as a sleeping pod, this feature ensures comfort and protection.

Waterproof Seals

  • Rain, snow, and river crossings are no match for the fully integrated waterproof seals. These premium seals create a watertight shield that protects your gear from heavy rain and harsh weather without compromise. It's the kind of weatherproofing serious overlanders rely on.

Heavy-Duty Latches

  • Secure your valuables and keep the elements out. The reinforced latch mechanism locks down securely, deterring prying hands and keeping your equipment safe and sealed from the elements.
  • Whether you’re bouncing over rocks or parking in a city lot, you’ll have peace of mind.

Solid Hinges

  • Opening and closing the cap shouldn't be a hassle. Industrial-grade solid hinges offer buttery smooth articulation and long-lasting performance, resisting wear even after thousands of open-close cycles.

DOT-Approved Safety Glass

  • See clearly and stay legal. The rear window is crafted from DOT-compliant safety glass, providing excellent visibility and shatter-resistant performance that meets road safety standards across the U.S.

3rd Brake Light

  • Safety meets functionality with the integrated third brake light. It improves visibility during stops and ensures your truck cap doesn’t interfere with your F-150’s road safety profile.

High-Pressure Struts

  • Access your gear with ease, even when your hands are full. The high-pressure gas struts support the rear window with consistent lift and hold, making loading and unloading smooth and effortless.

Modular Construction

  • Your adventures change, and so should your gear. Thanks to modular construction, this truck cap can be easily customized with additional accessories like shelving, insulation, or lighting systems to suit your unique expedition needs.

Integrated Roof Rails

  • Plan to bring a roof top tent, kayak, or recovery boards? The integrated roof rails are pre-engineered to work with OVS or aftermarket crossbars, transforming your F-150 into a full-fledged overland platform. They provide the support and flexibility needed for heavy-duty adventure gear.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

  • Every OVS Expedition Truck Cap is backed by a limited lifetime warranty, a testament to the craftsmanship and confidence behind the product. It’s more than just a topper. It’s an investment in your journey, mile after mile.

  • What is included to seal the Expedition Truck Cap to prevent water and dust ingress?

    OVS provides a 3M single bulb seal that is placed around the perimeter on the bed rails and bulkhead to prevent water/dust from coming in. OVS' rear hatch also has a bulb seal that seats on the top of the tailgate in the closed position. In addition, they provide 2 pieces of butyl tape that can be placed at the bulkhead rail where there is a step down from the side plastic bed rail to the bulkhead to help prevent water/dust intrusion.

    It is important to note that no truck bed is completely sealed, and some water intrusion may be possible although greatly reduced with the bulb seal. Likely water intrusion is often found around the tailgate perimeter.

    The included rails were designed around the Overland Vehicle Systems optional cross bars. The included roof rails do have a 19mm slot which will allow for various systems. OVS has been testing various aftermarket crossbar systems and found that the Yakima HD Crossbars (SKU: #8001156), the Yakima Landing Pads (SKU: #8000221), and the Yakima Skyline Towers (SKU: #8000163) if bought together is compatible with their Expedition Truck Cap.

  • Does the Expedition Truck Cap glass closest to the cab have a slider or drop-down option?

    Each Expedition Truck Cap will come with keyed-alike locks.

  • Can the Expedition Truck Cap be locked or opened from the inside?

    The Expedition Truck Cap cannot be locked or opened from the inside of the bed.

  • Does the Expedition Truck Cap have a vent?

    The Expedition Truck Cap vent is a fixed vent located above the glass on the panel located closest to the cab. The vent allows for air ventilation as well as circulation to reduce condensation inside the topper. It also allows air to escape during closing of all of the panels.

  • Is there any drilling required to install the Expedition Truck Cap?

    The only drilling involved in the Expedition Truck Cap installation is the hole you drill for the wiring portion of the Toyota Tacoma installation.

  • Does the OVS truck cap fit Ford F-150 Lightning or Raptor models?

    The OVS Expedition truck cap is compatible with Ford F‑150 Lightning and Raptor models (2021–2026) with the 5.5′ bed. It uses their “True Fit” no‑drill clamp system and explicitly lists compatibility with both Lightning and Raptor trims.

  • What is included to seal the Expedition Truck Cap to prevent water and dust ingress?

    OVS provides a 3M single bulb seal that is placed around the perimeter on the bed rails and bulkhead to prevent water/dust from coming in. OVS' rear hatch also has a bulb seal that seats on the top of the tailgate in the closed position. In addition, they provide 2 pieces of butyl tape that can be placed at the bulkhead rail where there is a step down from the side plastic bed rail to the bulkhead to help prevent water/dust intrusion.

    It is important to note that no truck bed is completely sealed, and some water intrusion may be possible although greatly reduced with the bulb seal. Likely water intrusion is often found around the tailgate perimeter.

  • Does the Expedition Truck Cap come with a crossbar system?

    Yes, an Overland Vehicle Systems cross-bar option is available in different widths. Just select the crossbars option above. The cross bars will mount to the included cap rails (the rails that go parallel with the frame rails). The bars have a dynamic weight rating of 325 lbs and a static weight rating of 750 lbs and have a rise of approximately 2” above the cap.

  • Are the Expedition Truck Cap included roof rails compatible with other aftermarket cross bars?

    The included rails were designed around the Overland Vehicle Systems optional cross bars. The included roof rails do have a 19mm slot which will allow for various systems. OVS has been testing various aftermarket crossbar systems and found that the Yakima HD Crossbars (SKU: #8001156), the Yakima Landing Pads (SKU: #8000221), and the Yakima Skyline Towers (SKU: #8000163) if bought together is compatible with their Expedition Truck Cap.

  • Does the Expedition Truck Cap glass closest to the cab have a slider or drop-down option?

    Each Expedition Truck Cap will come with keyed-alike locks.

  • Can the Expedition Truck Cap be locked or opened from the inside?

    The Expedition Truck Cap cannot be locked or opened from the inside of the bed.

  • Does the Expedition Truck Cap have a vent?

    The Expedition Truck Cap vent is a fixed vent located above the glass on the panel located closest to the cab. The vent allows for air ventilation as well as circulation to reduce condensation inside the topper. It also allows air to escape during closing of all of the panels.

  • Is there any drilling required to install the Expedition Truck Cap?

    The only drilling involved in the Expedition Truck Cap installation is the hole you drill for the wiring portion of the Toyota Tacoma installation.
