III.6.,  IV.1.,  V.2., V.3., and V.4., which management of Mellon Bank, N.A. has

same period, Mellon Bank, N.A. had in effect a combined fidelity bond and errors

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

Mellon Auto Grantor Trusts 1999-1, 2000-1, and 2000-2
c/o Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as Trustee:


We have examined  management's  assertion about Mellon Bank,  N.A.'s  compliance
with  the  minimum  servicing  standards  set  forth  in  the  Mortgage  Bankers
Association  of  America's  Uniform  Single  Attestation  Program  for  Mortgage
Bankers,  except for minimum servicing standards I.4., I11.3.,  III.4.,  III.6.,
IV.1.,  V.2.,  V.3.,  and V.4.,  which  management  of  Mellon  Bank,  N.A.  has
interpreted as being  inapplicable to the servicing of the automobile loans held
by Mellon Auto Grantor Trusts 1999-1, 2000-1, and 2000-2, as of and for the year
ended  December  31,  2001,  included  in the  accompanying  Management  Report.
Management is responsible for Mellon Bank,  N.A.'s compliance with those minimum
servicing standards. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's
assertion about Mellon Bank, N.A.'s compliance based on our examination.

Our  examination  was  conducted  in  accordance  with   attestation   standards
established  by the  American  Institute of Certified  Public  Accountants  and,
accordingly,  included examining,  on a test basis,  evidence about Mellon Bank,
N,A.'s  compliance  with the minimum  servicing  standards  specified  above 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 Mellon
Bank, N.A.'s compliance with the minimum servicing standards.
In our opinion,  management's assertion that Mellon Bank, N.A. has complied with
the  aforementioned  minimum  servicing  standards  as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2001, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
