Grumman AA-1. Two standard weight adults, no baggage and the IFR range is less than half an hour.
I have little respect (as designed products) for Spam cans by Cessna, Piper, Grumman etc.
The Cardinal is OK but still uses 200 horses and CS prop and retractable undercarriage to do what a Jodel or Robin does on 160-180, fixed pith , fixed gear.
