Based off what people are saying, a 12 inch would be difficult by oneself in a hatch back? (Thinking of buying a small hatchback soon).

The scope in the video is auto-tracking (not goto) which is why the alignment is done like that. I have since upgraded it to goto by replacing the hand controller. For the goto system the alignment is done using two bright stars.
Regarding the hatchback, I think it can be done, but it might not be easy. I have squeezed mine into my wife's Beetle, which is a hatchback. I had to fold the front seat forward making it impossible to carry a passenger in the front seat. See the following post where I attached some pics...
