INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
Board of Directors
John Deere Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries
Moline, Illinois
We have examined the accompanying management assertion (Exhibit
I) about John Deere Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries' (the
Company) compliance with certain of the minimum servicing
standards identified in the Mortgage Bankers Association of
America's UNIFORM SINGLE ATTESTATION PROGRAM FOR MORTGAGE
BANKERS (USAP) as of and for the year ended October 31, 1999,
pursuant to the Servicing Agreement listed in Exhibit II.
Management is responsible for the Company's compliance with
those applicable minimum servicing standards. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on management's
assertion about the Company's compliance based on our
examination.
Our examination was made in accordance with standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants and, accordingly, included examining, on a test
basis, evidence about the Company's compliance with the
applicable minimum servicing standards and performing such
other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not
provide a legal determination on the Company's compliance with
the minimum servicing standards.
In our opinion, management's assertion that the Company
complied with the applicable aforementioned minimum servicing
standards as of and for the year ended October 31, 1999 is
fairly stated, in all material respects.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
the Board of Directors and management of the Company, The Bank
of New York (as Indenture Trustee), and Bankers Trust Delaware
(as Owner Trustee) and is not intended to be and should not be
used by anyone other than these specified parties.

February 22, 2000 EXHIBIT I
As of and for the year ended October 31, 1999, John Deere
Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries has complied in all
material respects with the minimum servicing standards set
forth in the Mortgage Bankers Association of America's UNIFORM
SINGLE ATTESTATION PROGRAM FOR MORTGAGE BANKERS, to the extent
that such servicing standards are applicable to the servicing
obligations pursuant to the Servicing Agreement as applicable,
included in Exhibit II.
Due to the nature of the above mentioned Servicing Agreements,
minimum standards I4, III3, III4, III6, V3, V4, and VII1 are
not applicable and, accordingly, John Deere Capital Corporation
and subsidiaries has not made an attempt to comply with those
standards.
