The Cherokees have a higher wing loading, which makes them more "stable"
in turbulence. On the other-hand, that also makes them feel a bit more
"truck-like". The Cherokees are more comfortable in turbulence.

OK, I agee with that.

And if you REALLY want stability, fly a 235 in turbulence with 84
gallons of fuel in those short wings. We have flown with Warriors and
172s in "light to moderate chop" (per their reports) that we have
never, ever felt.

Wing loading sure helps in the bumps.
