Ian, I have used minivans and smaller SUV's (Cherokees, that sort of thing) for transport. Having a back door to wheel up to and slide in and out helps.
If that new PSR coming has aftertouch, won't that change the type of action they use? But I guarantee you'll LOVE it, no matter what! 
So, do you own a vehicle for transporting your gear, or do you rent (lease) or borrow one from a third party?
I can't see the action changing all that much, and I'd be very surprised if after-touch is offered...it is, after all, a rumor.
Besides, like anything else, it's a matter of adapting...I play five or six kinds of actions in the run of a week(or day) so it's no big deal.
I find the Jupiter 8 the weirdest, but only because I've become accustomed to having velocity sensitivity on all the other 'boards I play.
It will be interesting to see if Roland's next G-series will be lighter...I'm betting it will be a bit, and I'm also thinking it will have a different action...maybe one from one of their synths?
Of course, the G70 is fine as is, but you and I both know how companies can change things without any rhyme or reason.
Ian
