Default Folding Trips on the River, Settle an Argument

I'm still very new to NL, but I thought this was a fairly safe fold. My brother disagrees.

Opponent here seems to be very loose/passive. Small sample of stats show him at 50/3 preflop (50ish hands so take with a grain of salt).

One thing I've noticed while playing the low limits is that pot-sized river bets seem to be very strong hands.

Fold or call? How's the rest of the hand?
