The rest were all CATs rated at 10k. No pass-thru is a bummer, but the trade off is the coach has one of the lowest profiles out there, AND you don't conk you head trying to get into bays under the slide
One thing I found in my search for 32-34 ft MH's is not all DP's in that size can tow 10,000 lbs. For example I looked at a Journey 34H, the 5 speed trans could tow 5000 lbs while the 6 speed could tow 100,000 lbs. Nice MH but no pass tru storage. The CC Allure or Intrigue are very nice if you can find them. HR Vacationer, FW Excursion, NRV Tropical M30, and HR Neptune are some other DP's in that 34 ft range that you might look at. Some of these shorter DP's have WB's shorter than gas MH's and less pass thu storage. Some come with 330 HP or less and will have less performance than a gas MH of similar length if that is important to you. Good luck in your search.
