Depending on the batteries you choose, here is why I switched.
Pro: My CG2 6 volt are true deep cycles, they can be discharged lower with less chance of damage. They have more storage capacity (generally 12v are around 75amphour, 6v are around 110amphour, think larger fuel tank).
Con: None for me. They are taller and heavier. Cost more than the stock marine/rv battery. Because they have more storage they take longer to recharge. But so does a 36 gallon fuel tank compared to 20 gallon.
Like said above, just do it. They should come that way from the factory. I got four 6volt.
If you don’t take of your batteries over the winter and ruin them every year, then just stay with the cheap batteries. If you don’t run the furnace at night to stay warm, the stock batteries may also work. If you never boondock and are always plugged into shore power, the stock batteries are fine also.
