Does anyone know of a lite weight travel trailer good for a couple that could be towed with an SUV?

Yep it depends on what New SUV you get as to what TT you can tow. Anything less than an Expedition, or Suburban, and you need to get a popup, 18' max ultra lite. You option expand quickly with the Burb, or Expe.
Notice I said anything LESS than. Not the only 2. And I stand by my post. Any thing LESS than a Burb, or Expe, and you need a very small camper.
You can always hookup a Equinox, "new" Explorer or a Traverse to a 6000lb, 25', TT and give it a try. Call me, so I can watch.
Also notice, NONE of those are rated to tow more than 5000lbs. So you will be limited.
Ridiculous statement-sorry but I have to object. We're towing 6000 pounds+ with our Toyota Sequoia and our experience contradicts your claim. There are so many lightweight well built travel trailers now that can be towed by the Sequoia, the new Durango with the Hemi V-8, the new Grand Cherokee with the diesel engine, the Nissan Armada, the Tahoe/Yukon, and the Suburban and Expedition. An upgraded hitch and brake controller is a must, of course. We towed to Yellowstone from MN last summer and we had a great towing experience with our 9 year old 120,000 mile plus "paid for" Sequoia with all 6 of us.
