That vehicle has a 1400# payload, so you have to make sure the tongue weight of whatever you look at is low. Before you look though, do yourself a favor. Load it up with whatever you think you might carry in it, along with whoever you will have as a passenger, and go weigh it. Weigh it empty with just you in it, but with a full tank of gas both time. Subtract the loaded from unloaded, and subtract again from the payload capacity. Verify that your loaded weight doesn't exceed the gross weight on the door sticker too. That balance you have between loaded and unloaded is what you can put on the hitch. Now that you have that number, go shopping based on tongue weight.
Rough guess is you need something under 500# TW. Check out a Coleman 17FQits specs fall right in where you need to be.
