It sure does Jimmy! The BAKFlip MX4 EZ-Lift Hard Tonneau Cover item # BAK72BV does indeed fit your 2018 Ford F-150 with the shorter 5-1/2' bed. This cover installs with included clamps and does not require any cutting or drilling.
The BAKFlip MX4 EZ-Lift Hard Tonneau Cover item # BAK72BV has spring assisted panels that require only 10.5 lbs of force to lift them. This is a tri-fold cover that can be folded all the way to your F-150's cab. This is a great feature that allows you to haul taller equipment or large things like refrigerators without having to remove the cover.
What kind of gear do you need the cover for or do you just like having one on your truck? Feel free to answer this and throw in any other questions you have, where it says Add Comment.

Thanks. I don't haul anything specific in the bed related to the cover. I just like having one in case I'm running errands. It's easier to throw things in the bed and not have to worry about them getting stolen or wet with a cover.
