Towing PUP with Rav4

Anyone tow with a Rav4 or similar?
A friend wants to buy a 2200lb PUP and tow with a 2008 Rav4 AWD V6, 300lb hitch and 3500lb tow capability.
She says it has a transmission cooler but no hitch at the moment.

I'm skeptical on telling her yay or nay. The numbers seem to work but I don't know how this would handle on the road. I did tell her that if she did do it to pack light.

Any feedback?
Thanks
