There is basically nothing that will meet your criteria and still be towable you your Jeep. That is according to Trail Life 2010 towing rating.
Plan on moving up to a larger tow vehicle, then you can get a decent trailer.
The Camplite 14DBS has a dry weight of 2650 lbs with a GVWR of 5000 pounds. The 16DBS is 2990/5000 pounds. Properly loaded it may work, as long as there is not a lot of mountain camping. Jeep's web site shows a towing capacity of 5000 pounds for a V6 Cherokee.
The OP's V6 Jeep has a max tow rating of 3500 pounds. That is before passengers, and gear to the Jeep. That means the absolute maximum trailer he can handle will be around 2700 pounds ready to travel. Find me a TT that has a GVWR in that range and I will reverse my comments. Until then I stand by my comments 100%.
