I had a similar experience moving to SPD clipless when I got my roadbike. I found I also felt more "secure" when standing up climbing a hill.
Not sure what style your trek is, but for my hybrid I put Shimano PD-EH500 on it. SPD one side, flat on the other. While they seem to often be wrong-side up I like the flexibility of using the flats for toodling around / errand running and SPD side when riding forest service roads with a group. .
