Say Don, If you end up with a 150 and start flying from the little strip you may like to consider vortex generators and perhaps aileron gap seals. They may take the challenge out of it but could pay off on less than perfect days. I think it was Grants Pass Bill who just installed the generators on his plane and has reported spectacular stall resistance. Those seem to offer the biggest bang for the buck in modifications.
The gap seals are said to improve low speed handling. There is information on these things on the site somewhere.
