Default Turbo Dakota question

Happy Holidays to the group.

I would like to know more about the turbo Dakota. I understand it was built
for only about a year around 1979-80 and has a TSIO-360 200 HP engine on an
airframe similar to an ArcherII. Why only a year? Is it considered a
desirable airplane?


Think of it as a fixed-gear version of the turbo arrow. Even though
it was called a Dakota, I believe it has more parts in common with
the arrow than the dakota.
