Default The Grass Is Greener When You Don't Mow.

Let me see if I can properly re-format this thread:

I don't think I've ever seen a lawn mower with a 2-cycle engine.
Does anyone even sell such a thing these days?

Ugh. Ok, so somebody is making wimpy 2-cycle mowers. I've never seen
them for sale.

Wasn't there some emmissions laws passed a few years ago pertaining to
small engines? Wasn't it supposed to make small engines (lawn mowers,
snow blowers, chain saws, etc) cleaner burning?

And don't tell me that a 2-cycle lawn mower is going to be quieter than
a 4-cycle one.

And who wants to mess with mixing oil with their gas?
