- lryrob9301ExplorerYes that's doable in a motorhome, just 2 things. Your propane has to be shut off at the tank and the tolls will decrease the bulge in your wallet. Other than that it's a nice trip.
- Bill_SatelliteExplorer IIYes, no problems.
- K_CharlesExplorerYes often

My son liked watching all the fishermen on the water.
- w4phjExplorerMy favorite route to Cape May !!!!!
- Bob___AnnExplorerWe have done it many times. You will need to pull over at a small booth before entering the tunnel to show that your propane is off. They will make note of your tag number. Enjoy
- pigman1ExplorerYep, no problem if the propane is off. Try to use the right most toll booth as it is wider than the ones to the left of it. We've used both and find that we have less than 1" on both mirrors when using other than the right booths. Just go VERY slow. A nice ride, but if the wind comes up they will close the route to trucks and RV's.
- FeeLineExplorerWe use it frequently. Going south, there is a rest area just north of the tolls, pull in there and turn off your propane. There is plenty of parking and you can sit and relax if you care to do so.
The tunnels are only two lanes, 1 in each direction and your mirrors can pass pretty close to oncoming trucks or other RVs. If you have a problem with that, find another route or go through during lite traffic times.
I have gone thru at all different times with no problem, but lately we have set our schedule so that we arrive at the rest area around 8 or 9 PM, catch a nap and go through the tunnel about 3 or 4 in the morning. This works well for me because we continue to Emporia and this time table allows me to miss all the traffic around Virginia Beach and the Norfolk area.
I enjoy the ride going south from Jersey, I find 13 a lot more relaxing then I-95 around Washington and Baltimore.
Good luck, enjoy the views and the ride.
