Something to keep in mind, when on the road you never really know where you will be. I chose the Sam's Club 6 v. batteries because in case of any warranty issues, a Sam's is typically near-by. I chose the 6 volts because every Sam's has them on the shelf..I think every one. From reading all the Solar information, it sees the most economical and easiest to find on the road.
I love the AGM batteries for my Super Duty, I got them at Sears, probably triple what a regular vented battery would cost, but I want the very best and most reliable for my starting batteries. Just my preference.
Mike, keep this in mind, if you stay somewhere without hook-ups, say you park around noon and it is cool enough to run the furnace. Around 11:00 the next morning, your 12 volt will be really low. You will only have enough reserve for about 24 hrs running the furnace, and all the other things that are nice to have on.
Someone feel free to correct me if my math is bad. I ain't too good at cypering...
