Carl,
My little brother just got back from his second Iraq tour. I really respect what you are doing. That said, don't rule out the 9-5's made before 2002 if you're not quite flush enough to pay for a newer one.
I drove a new 9-5, a 2002 9-5 and ended up purchasing a 2000 9-5. Basically, I couldn't tell the difference between the three vehicles in daily driving. But my wallet certainly could tell the difference between 18k (for a used 2002) and 12k (for my 2000, which incidently actually had fewer miles on it than the 2002.
The way I look at it is that you can purchase a lot of extra repairs (even Saab repairs) for $6,000.
