Much less boring that the PA28, with reasonable handling and a realistic stall. More roomy that the C152, and with better visibility.
I agree with all of that. And personally I hate the PA28 - floats too much to be any good on short fields (unless you're very experienced), and I loathe having only one door so that I have to wait for my passenger to get out in an emergency.

I learned on Tomahawks, and hired them for a year and had great fun flying all over the country. They're fun. I then changed clubs, and converted to the C152 in a couple of hours - really no big deal.

So have fun!
