I forgot to mention, the Bonanzas I've seen have all been missing a door and have the wings in the wrong place, so that is another drawback to them.
I've flown Cessna's the large majority of my flying life. I really like having two doors and a high wing for better visibility. I'm liking the Cardinal I'm using to get my commercial certificate. A 182 would probably also be a good fit for the type of flying I do.
See I need to take advantage of my circumstances. My wife has been telling me I need to get a nicer plane. I love to please her, so what am I to do?
(My 172 is actually pretty nice, with 7 year old paint and interior, but has simple avionics and an older panel. It is actually good for my recreational flying. However, I enjoy daydreaming from time to time.)
