Big Dobs & Light Pollution

I'd like to hear from people who have 24 - 28" dobs and use them routinely from magnitude 5.5 skies. I've been told it's not worth having one under those conditions but the move from 10" to 18" for me has been great. I eventually want to make that next jump but have been told it would just be a waste. A ten minute drive would, however, put me at mag 6.0 skies. Thanks for your replies.

Regards,

Mark
