For the trailer size you are talking about, ANY recent V8 or turbo boosted half ton pickup and many SUVs, including your Jeep Grand Cherokee would be just fine.

I also think the Chevy Colorado would be fine. I would certainly do it. One consideration for mountain towing, the V8 engines will likely provide more engine braking on those long descents.
