[...] upgraded to a 4-stroke trimmer and backpack blower  [...]

Two-stroke engines have about 1.8 times the power of an equivalent displacement four stroke, and much simpler (lighter!) construction.  So they are perfect for "wearable" engines like blowers, backpacks, chainsaws, and the like.

I once owned a two-stroke Saab (car)...  Loved the sound!

Those Saabs do sound cool, I saw one at a car meet once. They sound very much like a 2 stroke outboard boat motor, I'm a fan of those. The exhaust is discharged underwater so they are not loud like the lawn equipment engines.
