Question:
I am looking for a product recommendation for my use case. I have a 2007 Dodge Dakota with a folding tonneau. I would like to be carry light cargo on top of the tonneau, such as a small pontoon boat, however I do not have any anchor points for tie downs to secure the load. Is there a product that would best fit my need?

The first thing you want to do is make sure your tonneau cover can handle the weight of your pontoon boat. Assuming it can, your best bet is the Erickson Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors # EM09085. These are a universal fit for most stake pockets. The top plate is 3-3/8" long x 2-1/4" wide and the arch plates are 2-1/2" long x 1-1/2" wide so you will want to compare that to your measurements.
