It would be nice if you had an extra day. Covering both Tacoma and Seattle means you'll be spending a good amount of time doing either. I'd consider axing the car museum, unless that is the main reason for the visit.

Just to update all who provided advice. The trip went well, and the location was perfect. Stayed out by the airport, and did both museums comfortably. I rented car and could go into the city in the evenings for dinner by parking the car at the Tukwilla light rail station. It was a great way to get a taste of Seattle, and now considering coming back for three months to explore the city some more, probably using a roommate arrangement for that period. Wary of Craigs list as it did not seem to get good reviews to go that route but guess it's all a matter of luck. Even though I am a working retiree, I liked the vibe of the city and areas I explored. Anyway, the decision to stay out by the airport was a good one as it allowed me to cover my itinerary easily.

Thanks for letting us know how the trip went.

You might want to look into AirBnB for your next trip and I will second the recommendation of the Boeing tour.
