The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2008 Toyota Sequoia is the Curt part # 13442 because it has a 2 inch hitch opening with plenty of towing capacity (6,000 lbs trailer weight) and it installs relatively easy.
If you don't have trailer wiring the kit you need is the ZCI part # 119250KIT as it will give you a 4-way harness that does not require any splicing.
Since you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
