We pull our 177 with an F150.  Pulling it gets no worse fuel mileage than anyone else and it pulls like a dream.

Good.  We're going to look at them next week.  By looking at the website were leaning towards the 180 with the bigger bath.

Your highlander should do an excellent job.  We have a '13 Explorer with a 3.5 L 6 cylinder that pulls our 177.  Have been in the Rockies 3 x with it so far.  We enjoy our pod immensely, a great promotion from tenting and pop up camping which we did for 35 years.

Our 2012 Highlander V6 pulls our 179 just fine.

I'm located in The Dalles Oregon.  My wife and I are looking for a lightweight trailer.  We have both a F150 (good for towing up to 10,000 pounds) and a Toyota Highlander (5,000 pounds).  I know the F150 would be a great tow vehicle but what about the Highlander with a 3.5 V6?  
I'll do more research befor I ask anymore questions.  Thanks!
