    That’s pretty cool. Now give me a 7" google hub version with an aux-out! 

    This Snapper 82v. It’s a bit of a work out, but I’m still young enough that I like to get the extra cardio. Up-front cost is a bit more than gas, but I’ve not had to do any service or purchase gas (so far for 5 summers). Definitely more eco-friendly, gas mowers are particularly bad for emissions.

    What’s the dang final EPA MPG for the hybrid?

    I have a double suburban lot that’s almost a half acre and my battery operated mower works great. It came with two batteries. I swap them at about 2/3rds the way through mowing, and the second one has enough juice left to take care of the trimming and blowing. The quick charger will also charge the batteries as quick

    Preheating for frozen pizzas is definitely a waste. 

    Yep! I have a relatively huge double lot and my battery mower does it no problem. Really, for anything but big country lots I think battery tools work well. I haven’t see battery riders yet, but I’d bet their coming.

    I like it. I just wish there was a way to engage it manually (even if it was like a 5-10 second blast). 

    Yeah. I have the Snapper 82v 21" mower, and it covers my 5/8th acre lot great. Agree that the lift is a little weaker. Interestingly, my mower has an automatic “extra power” mode if it senses longer/thicker grass that puts it on par with a gas mower. I just wish there was a way to manually engage that mode. I also

    Buy an battery-electric mower. They only maintenance I’ve done over the last 12 years is cleaning caked grass/gunk from the deck and sharpening the blade. Plus, I’ve never had to have service, I don’t have to transport/store gas, it’s much lighter and quieter, and much better for the environment.

    Say what you will about amazon, but prime streaming is possibly the best implementation of ala carte streaming. A lot of channels/services, easy payment/canceling, universal search, and generous deals. It’s probably too good to last if this is any indication.

    So we’re expected to only use AR when it’s sunny? 

    Supposedly the hybrid was about 70% of orders, so AWD would make up less than 30%. 

    If you can put up with FWD you might as well get the hybrid and get 33-34 hwy and 40+ city. 

    Yeah. I’ve bought a handful of these Gerber knives.

    Perhaps. Not sure they would have had one (there was no restaurant at the hotel), and we had like 10 minutes to have a drink before meeting friends for dinner and a concert. It was the key card knife G&Ts or nothing. Hey, it worked pretty well...

    Whatever it was, my wife thought it was hilarious. :)

    Your post could use some “deprecation”

    I once had to cut limes for G&Ts with a hotel key card because I forgot my knife. 

    Everything expires....except honey.
