Thus why I also suggested the Turbo Dakota.

Personally, I'd stay away from that particular model.

It's common to think that the Turbo Dakota used a turbo-charged version of
the six-cylinder O-540 that is standard in all other PA28-235/236s.
Unfortunately, Piper opted to use the Continental TSIO-360 -- a
four-cylinder engine -- and it has been much maligned as being an engine
that is "pushed too hard" and thus doesn't last long.

Here is a telling excerpt from the "Buyer's Guide" on the Cherokee 235/236
owners group website:

"In the opinion of most, the only model to stay away from is the Turbo
Dakota
(PA28-201T). There were only 89 built in 1979 and they were plagued with
engine problems from the Continental TSIO-360. One member felt that
although the Turbo Dakota is much-maligned, due to its reportedly unreliable
engine, under certain circumstances it may be worth a look (i.e. you really
need to fly high). He met one Turbo Dakota driver who claimed that with
proper engine management, he had experienced no trouble at all."

That's what I call "damned with faint praise."
