Does anyone have any thoughts the best battery or the Lexington coach? I am going to have to replace mine soon.

Well, I'm guessing you're going to get an earful on this topic. One thing you should consider before you buy any replacement bats. Do you boondock to any degree. That really is the biggest driver in your determination on how much you need to spend. If yes, then go for better quality. Do buy at least the same amp hr rating bats if they suited your needs with the original set. Don't overbuy just for the sake of "look how much bat power I have fellas", if you're more the shore power plug and play RVer.
There is NO definitive concrete answers to what you're asking, only users (this forum for one) that can tell you their expierence. BUT, that is only useful to you, if their power draws are like yours on apples to apples comparison. There are informative sources to read up on the subject to better grasp on how you should treat any lead acid bats you end up buying. Here is one for you to read, if you're interested The 12volt Side of Life (Part 1). Good luck.

We don't use a lot of power when dry camping (no services) so when I had to replace the two Gp 27's that were in it when we got it I just went with a pair of Interstate Gp-27's that the tire dealer in Montana sold. Saved me from having to search all over for batteries.
I have found that my wife uses the microwave for lunch about half the time and all the time for supper. By starting the generator at about 5pm and letting it run for the whole hour until we are ready to eat the batteries are pretty well charged to the 80% level.
If I see that we are still down 15 or more amp-hours I will run it for half hour or 45 minutes the next morning. If we are not close to any other campers I will drag out the electric coffee maker and start the generator at 6am for this extra boost.
If we are not running the furnace in the mornings I just run it about 30 minutes at supper. But that is rare in the mountains of Wyoming where we spend summers!
If we never dry camped I wouldn't have replaced the bad ones.
