What can our Kia Sorento tow?

We are thinking about getting a small, lightweight trailer, either a hard-side or a hybrid. Pop-ups are not an option. We have a Kia Sorento SUV with a towing capacity of 3500 lbs. From what we can tell, Coachmen Clippers up to 17' fall within that rating but we aren't sure what it would actually be like on the road, especially in the foothills and mountains. I know there are other models similar to that but we don't know much about them. Does anyone have experience with this car or this weight rating? Any recommendations? We really prefer not to have to sell the car and get a truck, but will consider that if necessary. Thanks!
