Yeah well you can have a nice little dymaxion nap in your dymaxion house after driving home from your dymaxion job in your dymaxion car.

For reference:

Dymaxion house:

Shiny.

Cozy.

Dymaxion car:

Not quite Gernsback Continuum material, but close enough.

Volkswagen's van was more iconic, I'm afraid.

The car - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dymaxion_car

The dymaxion nap is a reference to polyphasic sleep which Fuller did for a while. To the best of my knowledge there is no dymaxion job.
