A pair of elongated protector strips are placed in a pickup truck bed to protect the bed and the tailgate from damage by snowmobile skis when the snowmobile is loaded and unloaded to and from the truck bed. The strips are laterally spaced apart to align with the snowmobile skis. Each strip has a downwardly extending block or leg which fits into the gap between the rear of the truck bed and the bottom edge of the open tailgate, thereby preventing longitudinal movement of the strips during use. Each strip includes a cut-resistant upper surface received in a lower metal channel. The strips do not need to be fixed or attached to the truck bed or tailgate.
