Default 2 stroke vs. 4 stroke

We've all said it: "I had so much fun, I bought one for the family."
You add oil to the gas in a 2-stroke, right? By definition, it will burn oil. Does anybody still make/sell a 2 stroke? Riding a chain saw without earplugs is not the same level of fun for me as something a little quieter. Newer is definitely quieter and 4 stroke will have better resale or trade value when the kids want their own.
I like the idea of anchoring out and using that as a base for a day of riding, but I bet you'll tow it once and the wife will suggest that "You take the 'toon and I'll bring the PWC myself to save you the trouble." LOL
