Default New Mercury 2.5 Motors

Does anybody Know if the new 2.5 Mercury outboard 280HP Consumer motor you still must mix the gas and oil together? If so does anybody make anything the would mix it like the 300x motor
which has the oil tank and the gas tank and the motor mixes it.

I think the 260,280, and 300 drag are all premix motors.

Its not that big of a hassle, just get a gallon jug of YAMAHA Waverunner oil. It has a flexi-spout on the can that really makes is easy to add to the tank - easy and no mess.

I used to keep 2 in the boat. Would refill them at home cause I bought in 30 gal drums.
