Don't overlook the best choice out there (for the money). I picked up a new 2007 Chrysler Aspen Limited full-size SUV 4x4 last month. Its $20,000.00 less expensive than most of the competition,...

Do you mean this?

The only radar detector allowed here is an alert passenger with binoculars!

My 2007 Boxster S does both #2 (when vehicle is moving) and #3 as a factory feature. Personally I don't like the horn chirping late at night when I lock the car so #1 is not important to me.
