''Summertime Cruisin''' (full title: ''Summertime Cruisin': The Unforgettable Favourites Of Mike Love And Bruce Johnston Of The Beach Boys'') is a compilation album of American artists Music/MikeLove and Music/BruceJohnston released in 2001.

It features [[Music/TheBeachBoys Beach Boys]] covers sung by Mike and produced by Music/AdrianBaker (Bruce only appears on the track "Camp California"). 12 songs off the tracklist come from Mike's two previous albums ''Music/CatchAWave'' and ''Music/SaluteNASCAR'' and the last two songs were recorded in the eighties and nineties, remaining unreleased until this album came out. It was exclusively sold at Canadian car dealerships if you test-drove a PT Cruiser.
