Gas powered blenders have come a long way since we covered the Daiquiri Whacker. The Gas Powered Party Blender ($275) sports a 2 stroke, 43cc gas powered variable speed engine, which is controlled by motorbike-style handle bars, as well as an 85 oz stainless steel pitcher, and polyurethane coating for added durability. It's the sensible alternative to cutting ice with a chainsaw.
