How long do we want batteries to last ?
IMO, and IME, nothing is simpler to maintain than LA RV batteries. When connected to a decent charger, and watered once...maybe twice a year, and maybe hosed off once in a while, they last an easy 8-1...

Not a fair measure.
The charging systems in most vehicles over charge batteries due to the typical vehicle usage pattern (ie short trips)
If high quality chargers were used in vehicles, perhaps.
Vehicle batteries have a far harder life than the average coach battery IMHO...
