Perhaps single piece mirrors are all that is holding you back. If you went to a James Webb type design using mirror tiles the only constraint would be your ability to construct a supporting framework. Imagine arriving at a site with your trailer and pushing a button to have your folded mirror array unfurl like a blooming flower. That will put the other big dobs in the shade.
On that note, what does the future look like for larger transportable scopes?
