Short summary
Limited edition VHS cassettes of Ghostbusters II in the UK featured this episode before the movie as a bonus feature.
Peter's license plate on his Y-Car is a vanity one and reads "Dr.V."
Generous Motors is a reference to General Motors (aka GM)
Y-Cars is a reference to the GM X-cars, including the Buick Skylark, Chevrolet Citation, Oldsmobile Omega and Pontiac Phoenix. These cars were subject of some of the most notorious recalls of the 1980s.
Although not mentioned by name, the "Queen of Soul" was meant to be Aretha Franklin. "Queen of Soul" was her nickname, and the guys were singing Respect, her most famous song. They had to sing it in a monotone way because the producers hadn't bought the rights to use the actual song.
Pulling the plugs on the vending machines is an old joke for animation writers.
While on the assembly line, Winston admitted he could never pull off a bluff.
The giant robot was an homage to Transformers but it was meant to resemble Winston.

J. Michael Straczynski called Pamela Hickey, had her sing "We Love to Trash Cars," recorded it, and then gave it to the voice cast to use as reference.

Ray reveals he built three cars in his last year of auto shop class.
Peter mentions Mars in reference to Ray and Egon's current state of mind in the parts warehouse.
Egon's favorite color is revealed: pea soup green. It's also revealed that Ray has a tuxedo that same color, and that the gremlin named Gorner likes that color as well.
The episode was storyboarded in Korea.
A point of the episode was to annoy the Ghostbusters to their breaking point.
The title is taken from a lyric in Martha Reeves and the Vandellas' 1964 hit "Dancing in the Street."
