P337 or a P210 ?????

[SkylaneDriver]

Greetings all,

I am starting to look at moving up from a Skylane to a P210. I need 5 seats for a growing family....

I have noticed that for MUCH less money than a P210 ($50-$60K less) one can buy P337's fairly well equiped, not too much older, and low time.

Both have "about" the same load, range and speed.

It seems like it is a case of "pay me now" (P210) or "pay me later" (P337 higher operating costs).

My question is why are the 337's so much less expensive than any other Pressurized aircraft (P210's 340's etc.)?

Are there specific years one should avoid, specific equipment that is a must have, or specific items that should be inspected more than others?


Thanks for any advice,
Maybe a twin newbie....
