Not sure if youre looking exclusively for SUVs, but may i suggest the WRX wagon.
If you are looking for JUST suv's my votes are in for the MDX or the Denali.

that's why i suggested the volvo because the rear gate is almost upright and there is tons of room for my ex co-worker's rottie.

I like the FX35 actually, its styled to look like a "bionic cheetah" | Yeah the 2010 MDX looks like a fat TL.

Your best bet is a wagon like the new outback or xc70, easier on the dog probably too
New outback has a new H6 i believe and isn't a bad car, A little big for my taste but forester if you want smaller

I know that you're looking at higher end SUV's
but have you considered looking at a mid-sized pickup such as the Nissan Frontier Crew Cab?
it'd be perfect for your dog if you got a canopy for the back and wouldnt have to worry much about your dog getting everything muddy or dirty in the back of your SUV

You don't buy a Mercedes expecting top notch craftsmanship. You just buy it because your folks said they were good. And you ponder about that sitting in the middle of the intersection thinking, "what good?".

GLK is built in the states i believe, much better deal though, C350 4 matic will be around 50 base, whereas GLK is around 8k cheaper, I DON'T GET IT!?!?!?
