Deep cycle batteries can't deliver the "cold cranking amps" that an automotive battery can.
Take a battery out of your car or truck and see if that makes a difference.
Having said that, I run two heavy deep cycles in my Dodge Cummins. It will start down to 10 degrees without connecting the block heater. The engine does turn over more slowly with the deep cycles. I use the batteries to power 12V pumps when scavenging fuel from domestic fuel tanks. They are also better for running 12V winches. I expect these batteries will last much longer than the typical automotive batteries.
