Optimistic Paranoid, - at least one person already mentioned thicker plates of 6V GC, no? :)...
And - sorry, not every savvy full-time RV-er replaces cheesy OEM battery with 6V GC. Surplus telecom are working well for Mr Wiz and some other long-standing fulltimers here, its charging profile is different from regular AGM and this should be considered.
Good new AGM will do nicely with proper treatment too, but at this point we need to re-define the meaning of "savvy".
Adequate charging and use is the key. We don't know whether the OP has it adequate.
