Gosh dang I hope this passes 😬 I love Tacoma so much and our streets are SO BAD still, even after some significant recent investments.

Tacoma Tries Again for Safer Streets with $200 Million Levy

The Tacoma City Council voted Tuesday to put a new “Connect Tacoma" levy on the ballot. Scaled back from a proposal voters rejected last April, the package still aims to fulfill goals of safer, more pedestrian-friendly streets.

Great news!

Living in the Pac NW #Tacoma🏔️ I think about the number of (weekly+) local shows we’d go to during the 90s when most cost less than $20

Scenes like that would be impossible with regimes like Ticketmaster sucking all the money out of musicians, fans, and venues’ pockets

Back to #Tacoma roof racks... A roof rack is such a good and convenient place to put an antenna. It might be worth the fuel economy hit and the wind noise.

I can't put any antennas forward of the windshield sight lines to keep my 👸🏼 happy. She wants nothing obscuring the view.

I've got a tonneau cover on the bed and the bed is fiberglass so there's an obstruction and there's a poor ground plane back there. Yes the exterior of the bed is sheet metal but all of the interior is fiberglass of some sort.

There are brackets to put antennas just above the rear brake lights. But I really don't like that mounting location (easy for me to rip the antenna off the truck on brush and bushes). And poor grounding. And it looks quite odd.

That really only leaves the roof.

Hence the need for a roof rack.
