Need some guidance

So, as long as they are all fresh, mixing an AGM should not be an issue. I have not had any problems with my set up.

I have run this setup for quite a few years, wet in the box, AGM in the cab. I really delved into all of this when I put the solar panels on the truck.

So just kinda updating, catching up, on this. So I started having trouble with the truck cranking slow on cold mornings. I had been out for like five weeks and was leaning toward getting back. I had to have a driver jump me one morning. I ended up finding one of the little short cables on the negative side loose and melted some. I replaced it and finished another week and got back home. I ended up replacing all four batteries. I got them from batteries plus just after Christmas and they have been working great. I have been staying out a lot since in some really cold weather. I leave the truck off all night with the fridge running. It cranks in the morning like it's a warm summer day. I have also ran the roof mount AC and the voltage only drops to 13.5. I really want to thank everyone for all the information and advice.
