To the OP, since your tow vehicle is more "car based, and kind of midsized", then Jon's recco of an Escape ( as well as other recco's of the other fiberglass egg types ) is certainly a good option.
You may want to do a little homework on tow capacity, payload capacity, etc, before deciding on a trailer.
And bear in mind that the "advertised weight" ( as well as the advertised tongue weight ) of many trailers is actually quite a bit less than what the trailer will really weight when you are ready to pull out of the driveway.
