OK, so there is one. The real question that I was trying to get at is
whether 1000lb and full fuel are sensible criteria. I would say that an
airplane meeting those specs should have larger tanks. I have nine seats
and I have taken a maximium of 6 people exactly once. I have never taken
more than four (my family) on a long flight 1200nm. My experience (and
most of those I know) is that there is rarely an occasion to fill the 6
seats for a long flight it is usually either/or.

I beg to differ. I have a 1965 Cherokee Six-260. I have 1050lb payload
left
over with full tanks. Full tanks is 84 gallons at 14 GPH doing an honest
125-130 Kts, betcha can't sit that long. I haven't seen any other
production
piston single that will match it (excepting PA-32's of course). The thing
is a
minivan with wings.

I don't think there are any but are you sure that you can find 6 adults

are willing to sit in a six place single for four to six hours?
