For me, I wanted a retract, I wanted something faster than a C172, and I wanted something that uses less fuel. So the Arrow is great...

I appreciate the reply! That's the rock I'm stuck between. Upgrade the 180D with avionics a d an autopilot, or purchase the lower hour...

Jim, I did that exact trade up seven years ago. A 1967 Cherokee 180 to a 1968 Arrow. The Cherokee 180 was a fine airplane, and it’s...
