Yesterday I was forced to fly a 30 year old one over five hundred miles, cruising between 170-180 kt, with four heavy adults and a load of luggage ... spent all the time wishing I was flying a DA-40 ...
Clearly wasn't a C172 then.

The T182T's I fly and the T206H won't even cruise at that speed, and despite flying very well and reasonably quick they are like sitting in a goldfish bowl. A cessna with RG looks like a crane fly to me I'd rather have a TB20.

Each to their own though. I don't choose to fly a Cessna myself.
