# FACTORS
AFFECTING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements about
our expectations, plans and performance, including those under Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations  Outlook for 2008.  These statements use such words as may, will, expect, believe, intend,
should, could, anticipate, estimate, forecast, project,
plan and similar expressions.  Management believes they are based on reasonable assumptions, but they do not guarantee future performance and
Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. assumes no obligation to update them.  Risks and uncertainties that could materially affect future results include
whether recent favorable pricing, demand and utilization trends will persist during the upcoming peak rental season; the impact of pricing and other actions by
competitors, particularly if demand softens; airline travel
patterns, including disruptions or reductions in air travel resulting from recent airline bankruptcies and industry consolidation or other factors
such as fuel costs; the cost and other terms of acquiring and disposing of automobiles; the financial performance and prospects of our principal vehicle
supplier; our ability to manage our fleet mix to match demand and reduce vehicle depreciation costs, particularly as we increase the level of Non-Program Vehicles
(those without a guaranteed residual value) and exposure to fluctuations in the used car market; our ability to comply with financial covenants and to obtain
financing as needed without unduly restricting operational flexibility, particularly given recent events involving the credit markets and Monolines that provide
credit support for our asset-backed financing structures; the effectiveness of other actions we take to manage costs and liquidity; disruptions in information and
communication systems we rely on; access to
reservation distribution channels; the cost of regulatory compliance and the outcome of pending litigation; local market conditions where we and our franchisees
do business; and the impact of natural catastrophes and terrorism.  Forward-looking statements should be considered in light of information in this report and our
other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PART I  FINANCIAL INFORMATION






ITEM 1.
        FINANCIAL STATEMENTS






REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc.:



We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of
Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2008, and the related condensed consolidated statements of
operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.  These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.



We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.



Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.



We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the year
then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 29, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

        SHARE-BASED PAYMENT PLANS




Long-Term Incentive Plan



At March 31, 2008, the Companys common stock authorized for issuance under the long-term incentive plan (LTIP) for employees and non-employee directors was 1,608,141 shares.  The Company has 45,857 shares available for future LTIP awards at March 31, 2008 after allocating for the maximum potential shares that could be awarded under existing LTIP grants.  The Company issues new shares of remaining authorized common stock to satisfy LTIP awards.



Compensation cost for performance shares,
non-qualified option rights
and restricted stock awards
is recognized based on the fair value of the awards granted at the grant-date.The Company recognized compensation costs of $0.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, for such awards.



Option Rights Plan Under the LTIP, the Committee may grant non-qualified option rights to key employees and non-employee directors.



The Company recognized $0.1 million in compensation costs
(included in the $0.9 million discussed above)
for the three months ended March 31, 2008
 related to the 2008 award, as required by SFAS No. 123(R), Share-based payment (SFAS No. 123(R)). No expense was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2007 because all previously issued stock options were fully vested at January 1, 2006 when the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R).  Under SFAS 123(R), expense is only recognized during the applicable performance period for options issued on or after the date



8





SFAS No. 123(R) was adopted, or for any unvested options existing at that date.  The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of the options at the date of grant.  The assumptions used to calculate compensation expense relating to the stock option award in 2008 were as follows:  Weighted-average expected life of the awards of six years, volatility factor of 35.78%, risk-free rate of 3.19% and no dividend payments.



The options issued during the three months ended March 31, 2008 vest after three years.  Expense is recognized over the performance period which is the vesting period.  Unrecognized expense remaining for the options at March 31, 2008 is $2.7 million.



The following table sets forth the non-qualified option rights activity under the LTIP for the three months ended March 31, 2008:

Performance Shares Performance shares are granted to Company officers and certain key employees. The awards granted in 2008, 2007 and 2006 established a target number of shares that generally vest at the end of a three year requisite service period following the grant-date.  The number of performance shares ultimately earned will range from zero to 200% of the target award, depending on the level of corporate performance over each of the three years, which is considered the performance period.  For the awards granted in 2008 and 2007, the grant-date fair value for the performance indicator portion of the awards is based on the closing market price of the Companys common shares at the date of grant.  The market condition based portion of the awards is estimated on the date of grant using a lattice-based option valuation model and the assumptions
noted in the following table:

At March 31, 2008, the total compensation cost related to nonvested performance share awards not yet recognized is estimated at approximately $7.8 million, depending upon the Companys performance against targets specified in the performance share agreement.  This estimated compensation cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.9 years.  Values of the performance shares earned will be recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period.  The total intrinsic value of vested and issued performance shares during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $4.0 million. The maximum amount for which performance shares may be granted under the LTIP during any year to any participant is 160,000 common shares.



Restricted Stock Units Under the LTIP, non-employee directors were granted restricted stock units.  These grants generally vest at the end of the fiscal year in which the grants were made.  The grant-date fair value of the award is based on the closing market price of the Companys common shares at the date of grant.  During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company granted 7,000 shares with a grant-date fair value of $11.58 and the right to receive cash payments representing 15,295 shares at the grant date price.  At March 31, 2008, the total compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock unit awards not yet recognized is approximately $0.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over the next nine months.

        EARNINGS PER SHARE




Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is based on the combined weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding which include, where appropriate, the assumed exercise of options.  In computing diluted earnings per share, the Company has utilized the treasury stock method.  Because the Company incurred a loss from continuing operations in the first quarter of 2008, outstanding stock options, performance awards and employee and director compensation shares deferred are anti-dilutive.  Accordingly, basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding are equal for such period.



The computation of weighted average common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) is shown below (in thousands, except share and per share data):

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the following summarizes the Companys outstanding common stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and therefore excluded from the computation of diluted EPS:  25,758 (stock options); 248,554 (performance awards); 347,364 (employee compensation shares deferred); 181,742 (director compensation shares deferred).



For the three months ended March 31, 2007, all options to purchase shares of common stock were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because no exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares.

Trade accounts and notes receivableinclude primarily amounts due from rental customers, franchisees and tour operators arising from billings under standard credit terms for services provided in the normal course of business.  Notes receivable are generally issued by certain franchisees at current market interest rates with varying maturities and are generally guaranteed by franchisees.



Due from Chrysleris comprised primarily of amounts due under various guaranteed residual, buyback, incentive and promotion programs, which are paid according to contract terms and are generally received within 60 days.



Other vehicle manufacturer receivablesinclude primarily amounts due under guaranteed residual, buyback and incentive programs, which are paid according to contract terms and are generally received within 60 days.



Car sales receivableinclude primarily
amounts due from car sale auctions for the sale of both Program and Non-Program Vehicles. Vehicles purchased by vehicle rental companies
under programs where either the rate of depreciation or the residual value is guaranteed by the manufacturer are referred to as Program Vehicles.  Vehicles not purchased under these programs and for
which vehicle rental companies therefore bear residual value risk are referred to as Non-Program Vehicles.



Fair value of interest rate swaprepresents the fair market value on interest rate swap agreements (Note 10).

The Company establishes unamortized separately identifiable intangible
assets, referred to as reacquired franchise rights, when acquiring locations from franchisees.  Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, such as reacquired franchise
rights, are not amortized, but are subject to impairment testing annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate there may be impairment.  The Company has
elected to perform the annual impairment test on the indefinite lived intangible assets during the second quarter of each year, unless circumstances arise that require more
frequent testing.  Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective useful lives.



During 2007, the Company completed its annual impairment
test of each reacquired franchise right and concluded no impairment was indicated.  In March 2008,
based on the present operating environment and in conjunction with reassessment of goodwill impairment (see discussion under Note 8 below), the Company reassessed its
reacquired franchise rights for impairment.  Impairment testing under SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS No. 142") also applies to reacquired franchise rights.  Based on the
assessment at March 31, 2008, management concluded that reacquired franchise rights were impaired, and the Company recorded a $69.0 million non-cash charge (pre-tax)
related to the impairment of the entire reacquired franchise rights ($42.0 million after-tax).

        GOODWILL




The Company was
required to record a non-cash charge for goodwill impairment in the first quarter of 2008.  Under SFAS No. 142, the Company is required on at least an annual basis to perform
a goodwill impairment assessment, which requires, among other things, a reconciliation of current equity market capitalization to stockholders' equity.  As a result
of the decline in the Company's stock price, the Company's total stockholders' equity exceeded its equity market capitalization including applying a reasonable control premium.
The Company is required to place greater emphasis on the current stock price than on management's long-range forecast in performing
its impairment assessment.



Based on this evaluation in the first quarter of 2008, management
concluded that the entire goodwill was impaired and the Company recorded a $281.2 million non-cash charge (pre-tax)
related to the impairment of goodwill ($223.2 million after-tax).

        DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS




The Company is exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates.  Consequently, the Company manages the financial exposure as part of its risk management program, by striving to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of the financial markets may have on the Companys operating results.  The Company has used interest rate swap agreements, for each related new asset backed medium term note issuance in 2004 through 2007, to effectively convert variable interest rates on a total of $1.6 billion in asset backed medium term notes to fixed interest rates.  These swaps have termination dates through July 2012.  The Company reflects these swaps on its balance sheet at fair market value, which totaled approximately $94.9 million at March 31, 2008, all comprised of liabilities, included in accrued liabilities.  At December 31, 2007, these swaps totaled $47.8
million comprised of liabilities, included in accrued liabilities, of approximately $48.9 million, and assets, included in receivables, of approximately $1.1 million.





The interest rate swap agreements related to the asset backed medium term note issuances in  2004, 2005 and 2006 do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS No. 133); therefore, the change in the interest rate swap agreements fair values must be recognized as an (increase) decrease in fair value of derivatives in the consolidated statement of income.  For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded the related change in the fair value of the swap agreements of $28.1 million and $7.8 million, respectively, as a net decrease in fair value of derivatives in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.



The interest rate swap agreement entered into in May 2007 related to the 2007 asset backed medium term note issuance (2007 Swap) constitutes a cash flow hedge and satisfies the criteria for hedge accounting under the long-haul method.  Related to the 2007 Swap, the Company recorded a loss of $11.1 million, which is net of income taxes, in total comprehensive income (loss) for the three month period ended March 31, 2008.  Deferred gains and losses are recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense over the same period in which the related interest payments being hedged are recognized in earnings.  Based on projected market interest rates, the Company estimates that approximately $8.1 million of net deferred loss related to the 2007 Swap will be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.

        FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS




In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements"
("SFAS No. 157").  SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a frame work for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008.  Although
the adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not materially impact its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow, the Company is now required to provide
additional disclosures as part of its financial statements.



SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which
categorizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These categories include (in descending order of priority):  Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active
markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as
unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table shows assets and liabilities measured at fair value
as of March 31, 2008 on the Company's balance sheet, and the input categories associated with those assets and liabilities:

The fair value of derivatives, consisting of interest rate swaps
as discussed above, is calculated using proprietary models utilizing observable inputs as well as future assumptions related to interest rates and other applicable
variables.  These calculations are performed by the financial institutions which are counterparties to the applicable swap agreements and reported to the Company on a
monthly basis.   The Company uses these reported fair values to adjust the asset or liability as appropriate.  The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the
calculations by comparing similar calculations from other counterparties for the applicable period.

        INCOME TAXES




The Company has provided for income taxes in the U.S. and in Canada based on taxable income or loss and other tax attributes separately for each jurisdiction.  The Company has established tax provisions separately for U.S. taxable income and Canadian losses, for which no income tax benefit was recorded.  Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Companys assets and liabilities.  A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred income tax assets when management determines it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized.



16





For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the overall effective tax
rate of (24.7%) differed from the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to the non-cash write-off of goodwill (of which only a portion of the write-off receives a deferred tax benefit),
and reacquired franchise rights, partially offset by state and local taxes, dissolution of the Thrifty Rent-A-Car System, Inc. National Advertising Committee, and losses relating to DTG Canada for which no benefit was recorded due to full valuation allowance.



As of March 31, 2008, the Company had no material liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no material adjustments to the Companys
opening financial position were required.  There are no material tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the twelve months subsequent to March 31, 2008.



The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions.  In the Companys significant tax jurisdictions, the tax years 2004 through 2007 are subject to examination by federal taxing authorities and the tax years 2003 through 2007 are subject to examination by state and foreign taxing authorities.



The Company accrues interest and penalties on underpayment of income taxes
related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statement of income.  No amounts were recognized for interest and
penalties upon adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" as amended ("FIN No. 48") or during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.





14.
        SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM




On February 9, 2006, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a $300 million share repurchase program, which will extend through December 31, 2008, to replace the $100 million program of which $44.7 million had been used to repurchase shares.  During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company did not repurchase shares of common stock.  Since inception of the share repurchase programs through March 31, 2008, the Company has repurchased 6,414,906 shares of common stock at an average price of $35.48 per share totaling approximately $227.6 million, all of which were made in open market transactions.  At March 31, 2008, the $300 million share repurchase program had $117.1 million of remaining authorization that extends through December 31, 2008.  The Company is continuing the suspension of repurchasing shares under its share repurchase program that began during
the fourth quarter 2007.



15.
        COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES




Various claims and legal proceedings have been asserted or instituted against the Company, including some purporting to be class actions, and some which demand large monetary damages or other relief which could result in significant expenditures.  Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance.  The Company is also subject to potential liability related to environmental matters.  The Company establishes reserves for litigation and environmental matters when the loss is probable and reasonably estimable.  It is reasonably possible that the final resolution of some of these matters may require the Company to make expenditures, in excess of established reserves, over an extended period of time and in a range of amounts that cannot be reasonably estimated.  The term reasonably possible is used herein to mean
that the chance of a future transaction or event occurring is more than remote but less than likely.  Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on the Companys consolidated operating results for the particular reporting period in which an adjustment of the estimated liability is recorded, the Company believes that any resulting liability should not materially affect its consolidated financial position.

        NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS




In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 as required on January 1, 2008, except for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are subject to delayed adoption in accordance with Staff Position FAS 157-2 issued by the FASB in February 2008.  FAS 157-2 delays required adoption of the SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities until fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the additional disclosures required upon full implementation and plans to fully implement
SFAS 157 as required on January 1, 2009.



In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities  including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159).  This statement permits entities to make an irrevocable election to measure certain financial instruments and other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis.  Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected should be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 159 as required on January 1, 2008.  No such elections were made by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2008.



In May 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP)
No. FIN 48-1, Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FSP No. FIN 48-1).  This FSP amends FIN No. 48 to provide guidance on how an
enterprise should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits under FIN No. 48.
The Company applied the provisions of FSP No. FIN 48-1 upon the initial adoption of FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007, as required.
The application of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.



In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R)) and SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements  an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS No. 160) which are both effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  SFAS No. 141(R) requires the acquirer to recognize assets and liabilities and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date at fair value and requires the acquirer in a step-acquisition to recognize the identifiable assets and liabilities at the full amounts of their fair value.  SFAS No. 160 amends ARB No. 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and the deconsolidation of a subsidiary and changes the layout of the consolidated income statement and classifies
noncontrolling interests as equity in the consolidated balance sheet.  The Company plans to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No. 160 as required on January 1, 2009.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No. 160 will have on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.



In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-1, Fair Value Measurements (FSP No. 157-1) amending SFAS No. 157, to exclude the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for lease obligations accounted for under SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases.  The application of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.



In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 161), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  SFAS No. 161 requires
expanded disclosures related to an entitys derivative instruments and hedging activities.  The Company plans to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 161 as required on
January 1, 2009.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 161 will have on its consolidated financial position and results of operations and related
disclosures.

        SUBSEQUENT EVENTS




On May 8, 2008, the Company renewed its Variable Funding Note Purchase
Facility (the Conduit Facility) for another 364-day period with a capacity of $215 million. In conjunction with this renewal, the Company modified the minimum
net worth covenant to exclude the impact of any goodwill or other intangible asset impairment, and increased the percentage of Non-Program Vehicles allowed.
Additionally, a covenant was added to maintain a minimum level of excess liquidity.  The renewal resulted in higher fees and requires increased enhancement levels to be maintained
by the Company.



On May 8, 2008, the Company renewed its Commercial Paper
Program (the Commercial Paper Program) for another 364-day period at a maximum capacity of $800 million supported by a 364-day extension of the Liquidity
Facility (the Liquidity Facility) in the amount of $278 million.  At any time, the Company may only issue commercial paper in an amount that does not exceed
the sum of the Liquidity Facility and the letter of credit supporting the commercial paper notes.  In conjunction with this renewal, the Company modified the minimum
net worth covenant to exclude the impact of any goodwill or other intangible asset impairment, and increased the percentage of Non-Program Vehicles allowed.
Additionally, a covenant was added to maintain a minimum level of excess liquidity.  The renewal resulted in higher fees and requires increased enhancement levels to be maintained
by the Company.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2007



During the first quarter of 2008, the Company experienced higher
vehicle depreciation and interest costs.  This increase in costs, along with a non-cash goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charge and the decrease in the fair value of
derivatives, resulted in significantly lower profits for the first quarter of 2008 as compared to last years first quarter.



Operating Results



The Company had a loss before income taxes of $395.6 million for the first quarter of 2008, compared to income before income taxes of $11.1 million in the first quarter of 2007.

Vehicle rental revenue for the first quarter of 2008 increased 2.0%, due to a 2.9% increase in rental days totaling $10.7 million, partially offset by a 0.9% decrease in revenue per day totaling $3.3 million.



21





Other revenue decreased $8.9 million due to a $2.8 million decrease in leasing revenue and a $1.8 million decrease in fees and services revenue primarily related to the shift of several locations from franchise operations to corporate operations.  Additionally, there was a decrease of $4.5 million in the market value of investments in the Companys deferred compensation and retirement plans.  The revenue relating to the deferred compensation and retirement plans is attributable to the mark to market valuation of the corresponding investments and is offset in selling, general and administrative expenses and, therefore, has no impact on net income.

Direct vehicle and operating expenses for the first quarter of 2008 increased $14.0 million, primarily due to higher costs per transaction coupled with higher transaction levels.  As a percent of revenue, direct vehicle and operating expenses were 54.3% in the first quarter of 2008, compared to 50.6% in the first quarter of 2007.



The increase in direct vehicle and operating expense in the first quarter of 2008 resulted from the following:



Ø
        Vehicle related expenses increased $6.3 million.
This increase resulted primarily from an increase in gasoline expense of $3.0 million, which is generally recovered in revenue from customers, and an increase in vehicle
insurance expense of $1.1 million. All other vehicle related expenses increased $2.2 million.






Ø
        Facility and airport concession fees increased $3.2 million.  This increase resulted primarily from increased concession fees of $1.7 million due to increased  revenues subject to concession fees and change in the average concession fee percentage paid in the first quarter 2008 compared to first quarter 2007, and increases in rent expense of $1.5 million.




Ø
        Litigation settlements charged as expense
totaled $1.3 million due to the settlement of two legal cases during the first quarter of 2008.




Ø
        Computer expense increased $1.4 million due primarily to increased equipment lease expense.




Net vehicle depreciation and lease charges for the first quarter of 2008 increased $29.3 million.  As a percent of revenue, net vehicle depreciation and lease charges were 30.9% in the first quarter of 2008, compared to 23.4% in the first quarter of 2007.



22





The increase in net vehicle depreciation and lease charges in the first quarter of 2008 resulted from the following:



Ø
        Vehicle depreciation expense increased $26.5 million,
resulting primarily from a 27.2% increase in the average depreciation rate.  The increase in the depreciation rate was primarily the result of an increase in depreciation
rates on Program and Non-Program Vehicles (hereinafter defined), partially offset by a higher mix of Non-Program Vehicles, which typically have
lower average depreciation rates.  Vehicles purchased by vehicle rental companies
under programs where either the rate of depreciation or the residual value is guaranteed by the manufacturer are referred to as Program Vehicles.  Vehicles
not purchased under these programs and for
which vehicle rental companies therefore bear residual value risk are referred to as Non-Program Vehicles.




Ø
        Net vehicle gains on disposal of Non-Program Vehicles, which reduce vehicle depreciation and lease charges, decreased $3.5 million.  This decrease resulted primarily from a lower average gain per unit.




Ø
        Lease charges, for vehicles leased from third parties, decreased $0.6 million due primarily to a decrease in the average number of units leased.




Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2008 decreased $11.6 million.  As a percent of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 13.5% of revenue in the first quarter of 2008, compared to 16.4% in the first quarter of 2007.



The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2008 resulted from the following:



Ø
        Personnel related expenses decreased $3.6 million.  This decrease resulted primarily from organizational streamlining, of approximately $1.4 million, implemented in the third quarter of 2007, a $1.8 million decrease in incentive compensation expense and a $0.5 million reduction in retirement expense. The decrease in the incentive compensation is primarily related to lower levels of earnings in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007.




Ø
        The market value of investments in the Companys deferred compensation and retirement plans decreased $4.5 million, which is offset in other revenue and, therefore did not impact net income.




Ø
        Transition costs relating to the outsourcing of information and technology services and call center operations decreased $2.5 million, including salary related expenses.




Net interest expense for the first quarter of 2008 increased $3.0
million due to higher interest rates related to the Term Loan (hereinafter defined) and lower cash balances, coupled with a decrease in interest reimbursements relating to vehicle programs.  Net interest expense
was 5.7% of revenue in the first quarter of 2008, compared to 4.8% in the first quarter of 2007.



A non-cash goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charge of $350.2
million ($265.2 million after-tax) was recorded
in the first quarter of 2008 resulting from a continuing decline in the Companys stock price which led to a re-evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment.



The income tax benefit for the first quarter of 2008 was $97.7 million.
The effective income tax rate in the first quarter was (24.7%) compared to 53.4% in the first quarter of 2007.  The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due
to the taxable benefit related to the pre-tax loss in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the pre-tax income in the first quarter of 2007, the non-cash
write-off of goodwill (of which only a portion of the write-off receives a deferred tax benefit), and reacquired franchise rights, partially offset by the dissolution of the Thrifty Rent-A-Car System, Inc.
National Advertising Committee.  Interim reporting requirements for applying separate, annual effective income tax rates to U.S. and Canadian operations, combined with the seasonal impact of Canadian operations, will cause significant variations in the Companys quarterly consolidated effective income tax rates.

Outlook for 2008



The Company expects the operating environment to remain challenging through at least the first half of 2008 due to concerns about the strength of the economy and the impact on consumer spending.  However, the Company has seen positive trends in pricing, demand and utilization following weak January operating conditions.



The Companys fleet capacity will be tightened up going forward in
2008 as the Company adjusts fleet to match consumer demand.  In light of the current economic environment, the Company believes that other car rental companies may take
similar actions.  It is anticipated that these actions may result
in increased rental pricing in 2008.



Vehicle depreciation cost increases continue to trend upward in the
first half of 2008 as the Company absorbs declines in the used car market.  The Company has been increasing its level of Non-Program
Vehicles in its fleet and expects to have about sixty percent of its fleet acquired as Non-Program Vehicles for the 2008 year.  The Company believes that
this action, together with the anticipated extension of fleet holding periods, will help alleviate some of the
cost increases in vehicle depreciation.  However, increasing the percentage of Non-Program Vehicles increases the Company's exposure to the volatility in
the used car market.



The Company has begun to realize efficiencies in its vehicle
acquisition and remarketing efforts and improvements in fleet planning as a result of the implementation of the fleet optimization software, and expects to improve on these
efficiencies through the remainder of 2008 and into 2009.



The Company will continue to monitor developments in the bank and
capital markets, especially relating to the asset backed medium term note market.  The Company has asset backed medium term notes insured by AMBAC, XL Capital and FGIC
(collectively referred to as the Monolines).  If insolvency or bankruptcy of one of these Monolines were to occur, the notes insured by
such Monoline may begin to amortize, which means that as the vehicles are sold in the normal course of business, the proceeds from those vehicle dispositions would be
used to repay the noteholders.  Should amortization occur in connection with one of the Monolines, the Company expects to have sufficient excess financing capacity to maintain
its current level of business operations.  However, the Company continues to explore other means of financing its fleet given the expectation in the near term that the asset backed medium term note
market will continue to be
difficult to access due to overall negative market conditions including financial difficulties being encountered by the Monolines and other bond insurers.



Additionally, the Company will benefit from cost savings initiatives
implemented in 2007 and is implementing additional initiatives to reduce certain operating and administrative costs in 2008 as well as taking other actions to preserve
liquidity in 2008.



Seasonality



The Companys business is subject to seasonal variations in customer demand, with the summer vacation period representing the peak season for vehicle rentals.  During the peak season, the Company increases its rental fleet and workforce to accommodate increased rental activity.  As a result, any occurrence that disrupts travel patterns during the summer period could have a material adverse effect on the annual performance of the Company.  The first and fourth quarters for the Companys rental operations are generally the weakest, when there is limited leisure travel and a greater potential for adverse weather conditions.  Many of the operating expenses such as rent, general insurance and administrative personnel are fixed and cannot be reduced during periods of decreased rental demand.



24





Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Companys primary uses of liquidity are for the purchase of vehicles for its rental and leasing fleets, non-vehicle capital expenditures, and for working capital.  The Company uses both cash and letters of credit to support asset backed vehicle financing programs.  The Company also uses letters of credit or insurance bonds to secure certain commitments related to airport concession agreements, insurance programs, and for other purposes.



The Companys primary sources of liquidity are cash generated
from operations, secured vehicle financing, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (hereinafter defined) and insurance bonds.  Cash generated by operating activities
of $156 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was primarily the result of net loss, adjusted for depreciation, a change in fair value of derivatives,
non-cash goodwill and other intangible assets impairment and a reduction in outstanding vehicle manufacturers receivables.  The liquidity necessary for purchasing vehicles is primarily obtained from
secured vehicle financing,  sales proceeds from disposal of used vehicles and cash generated by operating activities.  The asset backed medium term notes and commercial
paper programs require varying levels of credit enhancement or overcollateralization, which are provided by a combination of cash, vehicles, letters of credit and
proceeds from the Term Loan.  These letters of credit are provided under the Companys Revolving Credit Facility.



The Company believes that its cash generated from operations,
availability under its Revolving Credit Facility, insurance bonding programs, proceeds from its Term Loan and secured vehicle financing programs are adequate to meet its
liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future.  A significant portion of the secured vehicle financing is available through the asset backed commercial paper programs
and bank facilities, which are 364-day commitments that are renewable annually.  The successful annual renewal of these facilities along with the Companys existing
asset backed medium term notes and other secured vehicle financing facilities are expected to be sufficient to meet 2008 vehicle financing requirements, even considering
the amortization of the 2004 Series notes.  The Company has no further maturities of the asset-backed medium term notes until 2010.
Historically, the Company had issued additional asset backed medium term notes each year to increase or replace maturing vehicle financing capacity; however, recent
volatility in the credit markets and the downgrading or risk of downgrading of the bond insurers, including the Monolines, has limited access to this market in 2008.
With the renewal of the Commercial Paper Program and Conduit Facility, the Company is experiencing increases in the level of credit enhancement required.
These increased enhancement and collateral requirements have reduced the liquidity available for other corporate purposes.  The Company believes it has sufficient resources to meet these credit enhancement requirements.



Cash used in investing activities was $53.9 million.
The principal use of cash in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was the purchase of revenue-earning vehicles, which totaled $1.0 billion,
offset by $1.1 billion in proceeds from the sale of used revenue-earning vehicles.  The Companys need for cash to finance vehicles is seasonal and typically peaks
in the second and third quarters of the year when fleet levels build to meet seasonal rental demand. Fleet levels are the lowest in the first and fourth quarters when
rental demand is at a seasonal low.  Restricted cash at March 31, 2008 increased $134.4 million from December 31, 2007, including $132.2 million provided by vehicle
disposition proceeds coupled with interest income earned on restricted cash and investments of $2.2 million. The Company expects to continue to fund its revenue-earning
vehicles with cash provided from operations and increased secured vehicle financing.  The Company also used cash for non-vehicle capital expenditures of $8.9 million.
These expenditures consist primarily of airport facility improvements for the Companys rental locations and investments in information technology equipment and systems.



Cash used in financing activities was $66.8 million primarily due to the maturity of asset backed medium term notes totaling $250.0 million and a decrease in other existing bank vehicle lines of credit of $38.3 million, partially offset by a $222.0 million net increase in commercial paper.



The Company has significant requirements to maintain letters of credit and surety bonds to support its insurance programs and airport concession commitments.  At March 31, 2008, the Company had $58.5 million in letters of credit, including $45.9 million in letters of credit noted under the Revolving Credit Facility, and $41.4 million in surety bonds to secure these obligations.

Asset Backed Medium Term Notes



The asset backed medium term note program at March 31, 2008 was comprised of $1.8 billion in asset backed notes with maturities ranging from 2008 to 2012.  Borrowings under the asset backed notes are secured by eligible vehicle collateral and bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 4.20% to 5.27% including certain floating rate notes swapped to fixed rates.



In late February 2008, the Company amended the minimum net worth
covenant in three of its four monoline agreements to exclude the impact of any goodwill or other intangible asset impairment, while the Company provided increased
enhancement for one agreement not amended in order to comply with the existing minimum net worth covenant.



Conduit Facility



On May 8, 2008, the Company renewed its Variable Funding Note Purchase
Facility (the Conduit Facility) for another 364-day period with a capacity of $215 million.  In conjunction with this renewal, the Company modified the
minimum net worth covenant to exclude the impact of any goodwill or other intangible asset impairment, and increased the percentage of Non-Program Vehicles allowed.
Additionally, a covenant was added to maintain a minimum level of excess liquidity.  The renewal resulted in higher fees and requires increased enhancement levels to be maintained by the Company.
At March 31, 2008, the Company had $12.0 million outstanding under the
Conduit Facility.



Commercial Paper Program and Liquidity Facility



On May 8, 2008, the Company renewed its Commercial Paper
Program (the Commercial Paper Program) for another 364-day period at a maximum capacity of $800 million supported by a 364-day extension of the Liquidity
Facility (the Liquidity Facility) in the amount of $278 million.  At any time, the Company may only issue commercial paper in an amount that does not exceed
the sum of the Liquidity Facility and the letter of credit supporting the commercial paper notes.  In conjunction with this renewal, the Company modified the minimum net
worth covenant to exclude the impact of any goodwill or other intangible asset impairment, and increased the percentage of Non-Program Vehicles allowed.
Additionally, a covenant was added to maintain a minimum level of excess liquidity.  The renewal resulted in higher fees and requires increased enhancement levels to be maintained by the Company.
At March 31, 2008, the Company had $247.9 million in commercial paper outstanding
under the Commercial Paper Program.



Vehicle Debt and Obligations



Vehicle manufacturer and bank lines of credit provided $312 million in capacity at March 31, 2008.  The Company had $219.3 million in borrowings outstanding under these lines at March 31, 2008.  All lines of credit are collateralized by the related vehicles.



The Company finances its Canadian vehicle fleet through a fleet securitization program.  Under this program, DTG Canada can obtain vehicle financing up to CND $300 million funded through a bank commercial paper conduit which expires May 31, 2010.  At March 31, 2008, DTG Canada had approximately CND $115.4 million (US $112.4 million) funded under this program.



Senior Secured Credit Facilities



On June 15, 2007, the Company entered into $600 million in new Senior Secured Credit Facilities (the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) comprised of a $350 million Revolving Credit Facility (the Revolving Credit Facility) and a $250 million Term Loan (the Term Loan).  The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain financial and other covenants, including a covenant that sets the maximum amount the Company can spend annually on the acquisition of non-vehicle capital assets, a maximum leverage ratio and a limitation on cash dividends and share repurchases, and are collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all material non-vehicle assets of the Company.  As of March 31, 2008, the Company is in compliance with all covenants.



The Revolving Credit Facility expires on June 15, 2013, and will be used to provide working capital borrowings and letters of credit.  Interest rates on loans under the Revolving Credit Facility are, at



26





the option of the Company, based on either prime rates, which are payable quarterly, or Eurodollar rates, which are payable based on an elected interest period of one, two, three or six months.  The Revolving Credit Facility permits the combination of letter of credit usage and working capital borrowing up to $350 million with no sublimits on either. The Company had letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility of approximately $146.2 million and no working capital borrowings at March 31, 2008.



The Term Loan expires on June 15, 2014, and requires minimum quarterly principal payments which began in September 2007, but depending on the level of excess cash flows and other factors, the required principal payments may be increased. At March 31, 2008, the Company had $248.1 million outstanding under the Term Loan.



New Accounting Standards

ITEM 3.
        QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK




The Companys primary market risk exposure is changing interest rates, primarily in the
United States.  The Company manages interest rates through use of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt and interest rate swap agreements.  All items described are non-trading and are stated in U.S. dollars.  Because a portion of the Companys debt is denominated in Canadian dollars, its carrying value is impacted by exchange rate fluctuations.  However, this foreign currency risk is mitigated by the underlying collateral which is the Canadian fleet.  The fair value of the interest rate swaps is calculated using projected market interest rates over the term of the related debt instruments as provided by the counter parties.



Based on the Companys level of floating rate debt (excluding notes with floating interest rates swapped into fixed rates) at March 31, 2008, a 50 basis point fluctuation in interest rates would have an approximate $4 million impact on the Companys expected pretax income on an annual basis.  This impact on pretax income would be modified by earnings from cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and investments, which are invested on a short-term basis and subject to fluctuations in interest rates.  At March 31, 2008, cash and cash equivalents totaled $136.4 million and restricted cash and investments totaled $267.4 million.



At March 31, 2008, there were
no significant changes in the Companys quantitative disclosures about market risk compared to December 31, 2007, which is
included under Item 7A of the Companys most recent Form 10-K, except for the net change of the derivative financial
instruments noted in Notes 9 and 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, and except for the change in fair value since
 December 31, 2007 for the tabular entry, "Vehicle Debt and Obligations - Floating Rates," from $1,990.7 million to $1,803.5 million, which
reduction also includes the amortization of asset backed medium term notes described in Note 9 of notes to the consolidated
financial statements.

ITEM 4.
        CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES




Disclosure Controls and Procedures



The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and forms.  The disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well
conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Additionally, in designing



27





the disclosure controls and procedures, the Companys management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.



As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the quarter covered by this report.



Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting




There has been no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a15(f) and 15d15(f) under the Exchange Act, identified in connection with the evaluation of the Companys internal control performed during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.



PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.
        LEGAL PROCEEDINGS




The following summarizes material developments that have occurred with regard to
previously reported legal proceedings:



On April 8, 2008, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
California granted the defendants motion to dismiss, with leave to amend; the putative class action lawsuit captionedMichael Shames et al. v. The Hertz Corp.
et al.,No. 07 CV 2174H (U.S. District Court, Southern District of California), on the ground that plaintiffs failed to state claims for which
relief could be granted.  This case was filed on November 14, 2007 against the Company and six other rental car companies, and the California Travel and Tourism Commission
and its Executive Director, and contained claims that the pass-through of the California Trade and Tourism Commission assessments and airport concession fees authorized by
legislation effective in January 2007 violated federal antitrust laws, the California Unfair Competition Act and California's False Advertising Law.  The plaintiffs have filed an amended complaint.



Various other legal actions, claims and governmental inquiries and proceedings are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against the Company and its subsidiaries.  Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of the individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance.  It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings could be decided unfavorably to the Company or the subsidiaries involved.  Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on the Company's consolidated operating results for a particular reporting period in which an adjustment of the estimated liability is recorded, the Company believes that any resulting liability should not materially affect its consolidated financial position.

Since inception of the share repurchase programs through March 31, 2008, the Company has used $227.6 million to repurchase shares. All share repurchases were made in open market transactions.
