My Alumacraft V16 weighs 400 lbs before you add the 20 hp motor and the 100 lb trailer. All fitted out it is still less than 700 lbs. We tow it everywhere with a Honda Pilot. Gas mileage drops to 20 mph, but otherwise it is as if it isn't there.

We thought about putting a hitch on our Honda Civic for occasional use, but decided against it since the Pilot is always available. I'm fairly sure the smaller cars would have no problem towing light aluminum boats on the better roads and boat ramps.
