We have the Baby Jogger City Single (basically the classic) and I adore it. I can jog sort of with it (i'm not a jogger, but kind of trot) and its still on the smaller side to not be obnoxious indoors. I really like the easy way to lock the wheel straight, which isn't an option on the Phil&Teds (not sure about the Valco) Perfect for the parks, as it just bounces easily over the grass and gravel of parking lots.
It is too big to travel by plane with, but other than that, it would have been our only stroller. (we bought a quinny zapp when Ben was about 18mo as we had a bunch of travel)
I'm a huge fan of air-filled tires - they make a huge difference and the steering on the BJ is awesome. I test drove SIL's Phil&Teds and didn't like it nearly as much.
finally, if you want to go with the Classic versus the Elite, its on sale on Amazon for $219
