The streamlined shape of a canopy can reduce drag and increase fuel efficiency at highway speeds. The heavy weight of most truck caps will negatively affect MPG in city driving with a lot of stops and starts.
Overall though, you are only looking at a .5 to 1 mpg difference max. So, if you are looking for dry storage space then go for it, but if you just want to increase your mpg's the money would be better spent on other upgrades.
