The Caravan is a wonderful airplane. I loved every minute that I flew it, and in a lot of ways really miss it. It is slow, and underpowered..but is so easy to fly. I found it easier than flying a 207. I have picked up a good deal of ice in it before, and if you stay within the limitations and follow your icing procedures, the airplane behaves itself. It could be a good resume builder too. Don't count out the TPIC just because its single engine, many employers like guys who have done 135 cargo, single pilot IFR, etc... Depending on what other experience you have, the 1000 hours in a Caravan could be what gets you hired over someone else...
