I love my 10" XT10. It is a bit of a mission to navigate through doorways, but it's not all that heavy. I'd say it falls under the largest easily portable solid tube designs.
If you are thinking of going with a 10" I doubt that getting a truss tube would be worth the extra cash unless you have a very small car to transport the scope it. From what I've read a solid tube should fit into most cars easily.
For truss tube designs I think it's only worth to start looking at them when you go to 12" and above.
