I think your friend may be misinformed. Per Interstate, "If a battery is manufactured in Mexico it is required by law to have a sticker on the top of it that says “Made in Mexico”. If there is not sticker, it is made in the USA.”
The new Interstate RV batteries have more cranking amps than standard deep cycle batteries in same size (24, 27, etc) at not much higher price. They advertise that you get twice the cycle life. Seems like a good choice to me.
