In upstate NY, most of the vehicles I saw sitting in a snowy ditch were SUV's. Over-confidence of the drivers and high momentum seemed to play a role. I did fine with my front wheel drive VW Jetta equipped with Blizzaks. My wife did even better in her Blizzak-equipped 2004 Honda Civic.
Subaru Outback is a good vehicle - multiple friends said it handles more like a car than an SUV (in a good way), and it has AWD. Equip it with snow tires and drive carefully, and you should be OK in winter.
