When I did the thread about 'What Astro gear would you purchase with $50,000' I put the 16" Meade Starfinder on EQ with GoTo etc..
But that was fantasy land. You are asking what would we get in reality.
I suppose I would have still bought exactly what I've got, my 12" Dob. For the $'s I had to spend it WAS the best buy for me.
All my gear is worth around $1200 (scope, EP's, Barlow) and there is no way I could get a decent GoTo with only that much.
