How much does weight matter

We currently have a 2006 Jayco 25' TT weighing in at about 5200 dry. We tow with a Nissan Titan. The truck handles the trailer fine but it is now just the 2 of us and we were looking to downsize. Another reason for us to go to a smaller trailer is I thought it would be easy to tow a trailer that weighs in at around 3,500 lbs. Maybe even be able to just set the cruise on most fairly level payment and go. Does the lesser weight of a 20' trailer make that much of a difference? We are currently looking at a 2011 Aerolite 195QB. Thanks for the help!
