DAIMLERCHRYSLER AUTO TRUST 2000-A
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The financial statements of DaimlerChrysler Auto Trust 2000-A (the "Trust") are
prepared on the basis of cash receipts and disbursements, which is a
comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting
principles. The primary difference from the accrual basis to this basis is that
the financial statements do not record overcollateralized receivables, accrued
interest receivable on the Receivables, or accrued interest payable on the Notes
from the most recent Distribution Date to the balance sheet date.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Short-term instruments with a maturity of less than three months when purchased
are considered to be cash equivalents. The Trust received certain cash deposits
from Chrysler Financial Company L.L.C. ("CFC") which are held as liquidity and
credit enhancement reserves and invested in short-term instruments. Under the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, the servicer is required to convey principal and
interest collections to the Trust on a monthly basis except when commingling
conditions cease to be met under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
AMOUNTS HELD FOR FUTURE DISTRIBUTION
Amounts held for future distribution represent certain short-term investments
held for future distributions to Securityholders and for liquidity and credit
enhancement reserves. Amounts held for liquidity and credit enhancement reserves
which are not utilized for future distributions to Securityholders will be
distributed to DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC ("DCRR").

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - SALE OF ASSET BACKED SECURITIES
The Trust was formed under the laws of Delaware pursuant to an Amended and
Restated Trust Agreement dated as of February 1, 2000, among DCRR, CFC, and
Chase Manhattan Bank Delaware, acting thereunder not in its individual capacity
but solely as trustee of the Trust.
On March 8,2000, the Trust issued $408,429,000 aggregate principal amount of
6.07% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1 (the "Class A-1 Notes"), $655,000,000
aggregate principal amount of 6.76% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-2 (the "Class
A-2 Notes"), $405,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.09% Asset Backed
Notes, Class A-3 (the "Class A-3 Notes"), and $440,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of 7.23% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-4 (the "Class A-4 Notes" and,
together with the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and the Class A-3 Notes,
the "Notes"). The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of
February 1, 2000, between the Trust and Bank One, National Association, as
Indenture Trustee. The assets of the Trust include a pool of motor vehicle
retail installment sale contracts ("Receivables"), secured by security interests
in the motor vehicles financed thereby and including certain monies due or
received thereunder on or after February 18, 2000, transferred to the Trust by
CFC on March 8, 2000. The Notes are secured by the assets of the Trust pursuant
to the Indenture. The Trust also issued $74,354,000 aggregate principal amount
of Asset Backed Certificates (the "Certificates" and, together with the Notes,
the "Securities"). The Certificates represent fractional undivided interests in
the Trust. The Class A-1 Notes and Certificates were not offered and will
initially be held by the servicer, which may thereafter sell the Class A-1 Notes
and Certificates. The Certificates will not bear interest and no principal will
be paid until the Notes have been paid in full.
NOTE 3 - PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS
Interest on the Notes will accrue at the respective fixed per annum interest
rates specified above. Interest on the Notes will generally be payable on the
sixth day of each month or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day (each, a "Distribution Date"), commencing April 6, 2000.
Principal of the Notes will be payable on each Distribution Date to the extent
described in the Prospectus Supplement dated February 29, 2000, and the
Prospectus dated February 29, 2000 (collectively, the "Prospectus"); however, no
principal payments will be made (i) on the Class A-2 Notes until the Class A-1
Notes have been paid in full, (ii) on the Class A-3 Notes until the Class A-2
Notes have been paid in full or (iii) on the Class A-4 Notes until the Class A-3
Notes have been paid in full. Each class of the Notes will be payable in full on
the applicable final scheduled Distribution Date as set forth in the Prospectus.
However, payment in full of a class of Notes could occur earlier than such dates
as described in the Prospectus. In addition, the Class A-4 Notes will be subject
to redemption in whole, but not in part, on any Distribution Date on which the
servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables. The servicer may
purchase the Receivables when the aggregate principal balance of the Receivables
shall have declined to 10% or less of the initial aggregate principal balance of
the Receivables purchased by the Trust.
