yes, the second one is probably going to last longer in that it has exterior wiring between the 2 sides, so, easy to fix if the cables were to break (also much less likely than with interior ones). And also probably physically stronger (aluminum, glass etc). You can also likely separate the 2 sides easily by removing hinges and putting in a new connector if need be, so more versatile, if you can get by with only 75W for something, for example. But will take more space to store and be more unwieldy. You can also probably attach the second one to the roof permanently.
I would suggest to do some tests and trials outside the truck first, it would not be surprising that a cheapo controller would overcharge a battery, with potentially very "hot" consequences if lithium. And it is a PWM, not an MPPT controller, so less efficient, and I suspect with limited settings. But, eh, those are not Victron prices either!
