To all of you who were touting this feller into a four-place...

Three or four gallons an hour more..
Annuals on four seats instead of two...
Two more jugs to get parts for at overhaul...
Tires wear out faster landing at 2300# than at 1650#..
Prop is about $2k more...
Nowhere NEAR as cozy as a two-seater...
And folks at Oshkosh say, "You came across country in THAT???"

(P.S. If you find a REALLY OLD 150 you get to park in classic parking at
Oshkosh...Margie, what's this year's cutoff date of manufacture?
