Or you run over the cord with the lawn mower!

I dated a woman for a while back in the day and she had a corded weed eater. She had a steep bank at the end of the yard by the road and was trying to trim it off. So being the gentleman that I am, and not wanting her to be worn out when I went to fuck her that night, I took over. Yeah that lasted about 10 mins till I went home and got the gas powered one. Done in about 20 mins.

Not if you have 55 acres, five ponds, four tractor sheds, and three houses on the property.

Now if you have 1/4 of a acre and a 900sq ft home, electric might work.

Oddly enough, its still legal (for now) to buy out of state and bring it back in. No shipping from out of state. I went to Amazon looking at a Honda 2000 watt generator. No shipping to California because it would arrive after Jan 1.

I'm not sure. If you own something, you can still use it, you just can't buy a new one.
Gas pressure washers are on the list as are chainsaws.

When I lived on 92 acres we had a mix of equipment. But it’s unusual to have 8 acres mowed.

I was perfectly happy to not need to mess with mixing gas and cleaning carbs.

Not exactly true, I've been searched twice over the years.  I've also been asked about bringing in aluminum cans and potted houseplants on other occasions.

The first time I was searched, I had driven across the country and the front of the car was covered in a thick layer of bugs.  I think that is why he chose to search  I knew how tightly the trunk was packed, and thought it would be funny to watch him unpack and repack it.  I popped the trunk, and told him to go right ahead.  He opened the trunk and saw the tetris job inside, said fuck it, and sent me on my way.

The second time I was searched, i was driving a moving truck. They made me unlock the box and open the door.  He looked in from outside for about 30 seconds while traffic was piling up behind me and then told me I could leave.

The bottom line is if you tick enough boxes, they will go for it. (Then you take the long way around).

Try that with a chainsaw and actual trees. My Milwaukee electric is complete garbage, leaks oil everywhere, has no torque and plain sucks. I thought I was buying the best in electric. My Husqvarna gas saw on the other hand cuts through the densest woods with ease, like butter.

Maybe an electric whatever is good for your 5 feet of lawn but not much more, right?

Chainsaws are where this falls on its face. Other than that it wouldn’t be a problem for me. I like electric chainsaws for yard work but not for real trees. Those being anything I can’t just push over with the 5 ton reach lift.
