I'm not one to talk either. I've been bike crazy this summer too.
I bought a Trek Verve + Ebike, and ended up returning it to the Trek Store. I then upped the ante and bought a Specialized Turbo Vado 3.0 This is my commuter.
I bought a used Electra Cruiser (before the label of "Cruiser1") and bought fenders for it.
I then bought a Firmstrong stretch cruiser
and finally, I bought a Raleigh Special 3 (3 speed cruiser) from Amazon for $175. (I couldn't resist!)
I actually have the Electra posted for sale, but I may need to wait until next May-June to sell it. I'm very partial to this new Raleigh.
Let's not forget that I also bought an old Univega tandem 24 speed, and bought new V brakes, shifters, cables, tires and handlebars. My wife wanted it too, but now she hates riding behind me.

The whole cruiser craze started when I found a mint condition Electra Super Deluxe 3i for my wife for dirt cheap. I needed a counterpart. it took 3 cruisers to do that LOL
