Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel

Yahoo Message Number: 17476
We are in Dover, DE (at Walmart because the Famcamp is too small) and we want to go to Virginia Beach. I've gotten conflicting info as to the Bridge/Tunnel. We are in our 12'1" Magna and we are pulling an 22' enclosed car hauler.
Any help is appreciated.
