A friend of ours owns a 32T and loves it. It lives on the West coast with only mild hills (mountains to those east of the Rockies), tows a Jeep and has never complained about lack of power. It has reasonable storage but NO pass thru.. reason is that the driver side bays are in the slide so you don't bust your head trying to get into them with the slide out. That's a popular model and not easy to find. He gets inquires and offers all the time when at the beach.

(Edit iPhone spelling)

Although there are some advantages to having the storage in the slides, I found the disadvantages outweighed the advantages. I have had both. My first motorhome had them in the slide and my second has a large pass through. The main problem with having them in the slide is clearance. If you have a nice wide flat campsite, there's no problem. But most campsites aren't like that and you often have the put the slides out over the top of the other stuff like vegetation, hose bibs, power connections, etc. That's very difficult to do with the storage in the slide. And you also lose storage space that way too. But it sure is nice not to have to climb under the slide to get stuff out of storage. But after having had both, I'd rather have the pass-through compartment and the higher clearance.

No argument on the +&-.. Everythings a tradeoff from the overall height to tank placements and quantities. That frame is going down thon center of the chassis wether between the bay's, above or below them. And everything upstairs needs to adjust
