ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a truck box cap for use with light duty trucks and similar vehicles having open cargo boxes. The truck box cap provides a side profile defining a horizontal upper portion, a sharply inclined second portion and a more gradually inclined third portion extending to the tail gate. The truck box cap comprises fixed side walls, a horizontal uppermost cover member at the first portion, and a plurality of telescoping cover members lying along the third portion. Slidable connection means support the telescoping cover members for sliding movement between a covered position enclosing a portion of the truck box and a retracted position underneath the uppermost cover member exposing a portion of the truck box.
