Don't be so quick to poo poo the sky watcher collapsible dobs. I have the 12 inch and it compresses down quite nicely for it to fit in the boot of my honda civic. If space is an issue then your better off spending the little bit extra and getting the collapsible dob. if i had the solid tube i would never be able to go anywhere and do any viewing other than in the back yard as it would not physically fit in my car.
