The little blue car with the four headlights is a proposal made by the stamping company Budd for a Rambler sports car.
Buckminster Fuller definitely had a clever mind and came up with some innovative concepts, but he also suffered from a lack of formal or otherwise complete technical education, some flaketastical philosophical hypotheses about the nature of the universe, and an obsessive belief in his own brilliance. The Dymaxion car is an example of this; while it did have a low drag coefficient (though not substantially lower than most modern cars), flow instability resulting in resonance oscillations and lift at high speeds prevented it from being practical. This would hardly set him apart from other car “designers” who insist upon form over function, although admittedly Fuller was aspiring for a highly functional design as well, and certainly some aspects of his designs did eventually make their way into modern automobiles.
The geodesic dome is an impressive structural form for its strength-to-weight ratio and the fact that you can make large freestanding unsupported spaces with conventional materials, but it’s really not an ideal structure for habitation; due to the large number of leak points, the difficulty in making living spaces that conform to the non-orthogonal lines of the structure, and the fact that the pseudo-hemispherical shape will tend to reflect sound from one focal point to its complement on the other side of the house, it just doesn’t make a very good habitable structure. For enclosing rotating radar systems, quickly erected temporary structures, and regular carbon macromolecules, though, it’s nearly ideal.

You mean I couldn’t even take a leak in my own home?
oops.
Just go in the corner.
Or these.
The car linked at the word “medley” is the original Mustang, before Ford Corporate made it mainstream (read “bastardized”).
