I'd say without a trailer, 12" is as big as you want go. I have a meade truss 12" and it's not the weight that's a problem it's just that they are awkward to get in and out of a car. A ute or a4x4 would be ok but if you have a car, go the 12.
I dropped my base walking down a flight of stairs and scratched the bejesus out of it.
What kind of vehicle will you be using.
