Good on you mate!
The best scope is the one you actually use
I'm a big fan of light setups, grab n go sorta thing.
Feel like looking up? Just grab, your scope, your mount and you're good to go. I've been down the big setup route and everything is just so heavy, so large, need to plug in cables and connect this and that, drag along the car battery for power, initialise the system... just knowing you have that setup ahead of you before observing can sometime be a bit off-putting I have found. With what you have, you are spending time looking at the sky and that's the best policy in my book.
