The front, back, and side members each have a top surface and a bottom surface, with the bottom surface spaced from the top surface so that the top surface is raised relative to the bottom surface. Each side member has opposed longitudinally extending edges with the mounting flanges extending from each of the opposed longitudinally extending edges. The front member and back members are connected to the mounting flanges. A rigid mat material is mounted to the mounting flanges. Mounting brackets extend from each front and back member, with each mounting bracket having a base and a body portion. The base is connected to one of the front or back members, and the body portion has an opening for receiving a D-ring to connect the truck bed mat assembly to the truck bed.
