[GEAR] Combo amp suggestions?

Okay, I keep kicking around the thought of getting a nice combo amp.
Criteria:
It's got to put out at least 100 watts RMS. Would love for it to be higher.
It must have an extension speaker output
It can't weigh a million pounds. I.E. Eden Metro, SWR Red Head, Peavey 210TX, Peavey BAM or Boom or whatever. In other words, I would prefer it to be under 70lbs. Something that I can actually lift into my little Suzuki 4 Door Sidekick or into the back of a Saturn SL2 without having to drive myself to the hospital - Because my hernia has ejected out from my abdomen to my spine!
Oh, I would prefer it to have a tweeter and a usable DI output.
So, is there anything out there besides the obvious amps. Those like SWR Workingman 15 and 12, Hartke kickback etc.. I like some of the older combos that I have tried. The Trace Elliot stuff is still supreme in my opinion. I used to own an Ashdown MAG 200 12. It did okay for low volume stuff. It did not handle the B string as I would have liked. Ahhh, an older SWR Baby Blue (does it have an extension speaker out?) would be cool, as would an SWR Basic 2 way combo.
