Q. Which is the best Android phone available in the US market?
A. That's highly subjective. It depends on what you're looking for... OS, carrier, screen size, other features.
I'll break it down into the best in different screen size tiers.
I'll ignore carriers for now, since you said "the US market" as a whole, but that's definitely an important consideration.
>4.3" - HTC One X or the HTC Evo 4G LTE are the hands-down favorites in this category. They're both pretty much the same, but the evo has a few more features, and the One X has a nicer design. It's a wash. The Samsung Galaxy SIII is one that some people may be interested in, but in my opinion the specs are a little disappointing, the design isn't great, and Samsung's TouchWiz UI is complete crap compared to HTC Sense 4.
4.3" - This is the most common screen size, so you have a lot of options if this is what you're looking for. HTC One S is probably the best phone in this category and has the best camera on the market (same as the One X and Evo 4G LTE), but it's screen leaves a bit to be desired. If you're looking for the nicest display on the market, the HTC Rezound is it, but battery life could be better, and the phone is awfully thick and heavy. The Samsung Galaxy SII is a great phone too, although it has been replaced by the, not-yet-released GSIII. . The Droid Razr Maxxx is good if you're looking for the best battery life, but the battery is not removable, which is something that turns a lot of people off (and Motorola's UI is not great either).
<4.3" For some people, those other categories are just too big. A lot of people have been looking for a high-end phone in a 4" screen size... something that until recently did not really exist. The Droid 4 has a 4" screen, but it's pretty thick and heavy given the slide-out keyboard, and the specs on it are nothing to write home about. The HTC Incredible 2 is a nice phone and has sold well, but it's getting rather old and doesn't have 4G. By far the best phone in this category is HTC's new Incredible 4G, which should be released very soon (pretty much every Thursday since the last week of April has been rumored, but most people are pretty confident it will be out by next Thursday or the one after that).
If screen size isn't a big factor for you, and you're just looking for the best all-around phone, I'd say that new HTC Incredible 4G is it. It's got a great processor, great camera, and great display and every feature you could possibly ask for (NFC, microSD with MHL support, Bluetooth 4, removable battery, etc.). It's not the *best* processor, camera, or display on the market -- more like a 9/10 in each of those categories (actually the processor is more like a 9.5/10) -- but none of the phones that would score a 10 in any of those categories have the same feature set as the Incredible, which is just as important. I could go on for hours about how excited I am about the Incredible 4G, but I'll stop here.
Hopefully that gave you something to think about. Like I said earlier, it's all subjective. There is no one "best" phone. It all depends on what you're looking for.

Is there a Bluetooth car stereo system that is designed for Android, vice iPod/iPhone?
Q. My current stereo seems to be designed for iPod. When I connect my Android phone, Razr Maxx, to my car stereo, it works, but song/artist/album/length doesn't show up on the screen. There are also many features that seem unused when using my phone vice if it were an iPhone. Do they make a system that works great with my Android phone?
A. most stereos are still not android ready. you will in 2012 some radios android ready but as far as i have seen its mostly the navi radios. I hope they come out with some single din regular radios android ready soon for the people that want sumtin basic or cant afford a 1000$ radio
