The WildTop Truck Cap is the world's first soft truck topper with an integrated, load-rated roof rack system, engineered in Australia to deliver 100% weather protection and up to 1,500 lbs of static weight capacity. Available in three editions—Scout, Nomad, and Beast—this soft truck topper will fit your GMC Canyon 2023-Current Short Bed (61.7 in) perfectly and offers unimpeded 3-side access, a simple no-drill installation, and the versatility to haul ladders, trade gear, and on compatible editions, even the heaviest rooftop tents.
Choose the Scout if you want a sleek, city-ready setup. Choose the Nomad if you need an adventure-ready rig for the weekend. Or, choose the Beast if you demand expedition-grade durability for extreme off-roading.
Whichever path you take, every WildTop gives you the lightweight versatility of a soft truck topper combined with the heavy-duty load capacity of a hard shell. Built to survive everything from the blistering Outback deserts to freezing North American blizzards, every model features our signature "zip-zip-lift" access. The side and rear panels roll up in seconds and secure with high-strength magnets, giving you full reach into the front corners of your bed—no crawling required.
