6V golf cart batteries are just built tougher. Think about it, almost the same physical size but half the voltage.
When I took delivery of our new rig a few years ago it came with two 12 V batteries with a total of 150AH (75 usable) but I replaced them with 2 6V Trojan T105's, 225AH (112.5 usable) for a gain of 37.5AH usable power or 50% gain in usable power. Now I have gone Lithium.
