I have a 73, I look for for a landing spot around 3 hours or 600 miles no wind, with IFR reserves. It will go quite a bit further if you pull it back. I like to take off at 9:00, fly eat lunch, then go again to where I'm going. From Tulsa pretty much takes me coast to coast in a day depending on winds. Don't know if I care about the extra 25 gallons of the newer ones. 3 hours I'm ready to stretch my legs and 25 gallons is another 150 pounds of weight. But to each his own, gotta pick the plane right for you. I would recommend a Riley tho if you want a P model, He did improve on the model.
