I've convinced myself that an autopilot is now a 'must have' item. The apparent choices seem to be Trio's EZpilot, or TruTrac's Pictoral Pilot II. Any Pro/Con comments on either. Or alternatives.

Check out the new Dynon A/P. 2 axis A/P + EFIS all in one package for $3500. As low a price as any other A/P but you et an EFIS with it.

I fly IFR with a pictorial pilot and an ALtrak (altitude hold)...Works great and is really is essential in IFR ..I mean literally is necessary to avoid losing control of the airplane in high stress mode.
VFR cross country they are very nice to have

I couldn't agree more. I have the Trio Autopilot plus the altitude hold. Both work great with the Skymap Three.

I’m not familiar with the Trio. I have heard nothing but great things about TruTrac for years.
