Economy flying.

Has anyone explored the range and endurance of normal GA aircraft and have some experiences to share?

I'd imagine that pulling back on the throttle on, say, a 152 to 1500 rpm or lover would increase your range quite substantially. I don't have a POH handy, so I can't reference anything, but it would be fun to know how much range you could get out of a 152, or any typical GA airplane. Anyone had any experiences or can reference a POH on their make and model on this?
