"Avoid 150/152s like tbe plague. They have too little performance from grass to be worthwhile."
That's odd, I fly my 150 off grass all the time, all year round. Careful handling needed when its muddy and I have been known to take off with low fuel loadings in the winter and make a short hop to the nearest hard runway with fuel. MTOW always needs care with 150/152's to stay within limits.
I do find it an odd reflection of this hobby of ours, though, that when thinking about a shiny new venture considerations are given to having the core asset being something which hasn't been manufactured for 40 years !
A bit like driving schools using Morris Minors and teaching double declutching...
