You don't buy a Cruiser for fuel economy.....

The sticker from my '93 shows 12 city and 15 highway. If I drive only city (work and back) I get a consistent 11.75 MPG and highway only I get 16.25 MPG when not towing and I typically keep right around 65 on the highway (2200 RPM).

I towed a 22 ft boat to Colorado this Summer and had the cargo area packed and running a rooftop box I got 12.45 MPG on that trip.
