This is a case that would make lithium batteries a good choice if the extra AH are needed.

X2. I would add, it depends on how you load your RV. If loaded out to the max routinely... then consider the LFP recommendation from Bob. Same footprint, 1/4 the weight. Could make all the difference. Since we are talking about weight, I would remind you that your particular rig has two long slides on the left side with the fridge and the pantry in one of them. combined with 7,000 lb axles the added weight of AGMs could put you over on the driver side tire positions ratings. Think premature tire failure or wheel bearing failure. Cha ching.
