* HilariousInHindsight: The RunningGag in this episode is how much the ancient VW microbus that Fry finds clashes with 31st century culture in every way, shape and form. Almost twenty years after the episode aired, VW announced it's plans to [[http://newsroom.vw.com/vehicles/future-cars/official-the-vw-bus-is-back-and-its-electric/ revamp the iconic vehicle for the 21st century]], with designs that look even ''more'' modern than some of the cars in ''Futurama.''
