I have read that the RX330 are pretty bullet proof. We had looked at RX350s recently but ended up getting a used 07 V6 Highlander Limited with 16k miles on it this May for $21,200 from private seller. But I don't know about Highlander's performance in snow even with AWD - probably not as good as a Subaru.

If you do not need a truck and the one you have is not relaible and causes you back pain why keep it period. In regards to the LS and salt..here in wisconsin we get our storms and then in 2 days the roads are dry. I still drive the LS but use my ol caravan (I use for towing the boat) on these wintery days. Not perfect to live in the midwest but home is home.
Cars are built much better to handle the elements than they use to be.

However the price might be climbing from what you originally planned and I'm not sure about how high it is to get into an RX vs. a lower Subaru.
