Keith I'm certain nobody would complain with a 12 year service life.

Assuming the 20% DOD 3000 life cycle is average they should last a little over 8 years, assuming I don't abuse them. Probably be looking for a new trailer by then. But then again SWMBO will make that decision

Keith,
When in storage, shut down your solar after fully charging (and disconnect completely) since it will be using up those 3000 cycles while not in use. Lead acid should be kept fully charged while Lithium should be stored at 50% SOC.

Thanks Jim - will do that. My new layout will allow me to do just that - fully isolate them and be able to turn solar off.
