pontiac solstice
cadillac CTS or CTS-v (preferable)
jeep commander
mercedes M-class
land rover

my short list. i know the last two are imports, but i'd be buying them used anyway, and most likely from an american car dealership (short explanation of the rationale: the money has already been sent to the foreign country but they were traded in on an american car - that's only half as evil as buying a new import).

i would also consider the new mustang, but buy it used, of course. buying a car a year old, used, means that someone else has paid that ungodly first year depreciation for you, and you can usually pick them up for thousands less than a new car. they typically don't have high mileage, either, somewhere in the neighborhood of 12k.
