Now why did that get me thinking about the MPGuino? OBDII gas mower with a ScanGauge, imagine that

I prefer mowing with something I can connect to a Kill-a-Watt, but I'd love a pushy. Unfortunately, reel mowers aren't popular here, so the few that are available are expensive. More expensive than a cheap electric, so that's one of the reasons they're not popular.
