3k gets you a nice scope.

My first choice would probably be a Discovery 15" DOB with the
observers package added on. That gives you a 35mm Panoptic and
digital setting circles.

If I wanted total go to, I'd look at a Meade 200 series scope or a
Celestron GPS. You could get 10 or 11" of aperature with 3k.

If you had a limit of $3000, what scope setup would you buy and why?
No, I haven't won the lottery...
