Hi William,
Welcome!
Firstly, I would seriouly consider going in and looking at the size of these scopes first! They are big! I have a 12" sky watcher dob (colllapsable truss) very well designed. The tube fits in my ba ford falcon boot ok, but it really the mount which makes moving the scope awkward. I have to put it on the front passenger seat, because it won't fit through the rear doors!

So definitely consider your car too, I really don't think I could've gone any bigger without upsizing my vehicle!

Good luck
Great views through that much aperture , good timing with Jupiter getting bigger and bigger too.

Cheers

Rusty
