The 182 holds more load but at a HUGE price. The 182 burns a lot of gas
to go so slow. The 182 also has the standard issues with the Cont 230hp
engine, few owners are able to get tops to make it to TBO. The 200hp
Arrow runs the bullet proof Lyc IO-360 engine that will easily make
TBO. Of course, the Arrow is really just a slower version of the
Mooney, but you didn't ask that. The Arrow and Mooney cabins are the
same size (almost down to the inch) although both got longer in the mid
70's.

Close. The '72 Arrow II got the fuselage extension; 5 more inches of
legroom for the rear seat passengers.
