72# 12 volt batteries are RARE (I have never personally seen one) and expensive.
I didn't realize that Trojan batteries were considered as "rare". Here's a (almost Group 31 size) Trojan flooded 12 volt deep cycle battery that, in fact, weighs 82 lbs.:

And for those who want to step into the AGM world here's three different 12 volt deep cycle batteries of about Group 31 size, all three of which weigh 72 lbs. on up:

We use two of the above Fullriver 12 volt batteries in our rig, for a total storage of 230 amp hours and total weight of a little over 144 lbs..
At least you aren't disputing the cost difference.
