I also found a guy down in Nevada who flies a Piper Lance who is willing to let me fly it and log PIC time when he goes places for $80 per hour, a 310 for $125 per hour and a Beech Duke for $140 per hour.
Would it be better for me to get to 250 as fast as possible with the 152 so I can get my commercial or would it be best to build quality time in the Lance and Multi in the 310/Duke even before I get my commercial?

Flight Training School - Hampton Airfield 7B3
My local FBO (in FL) gets $170/hr. for a C152 w/IP. I'm paying $5.65 a gallon for 100LL. That's what's killing the light plane industry.
