There is something a little more comforting about a crimp tight connection. That said, I do have a few shark byte connectors in my house that work great...no leaks. I've also replaced a few faucets in my house recently with Pfister. They use snap-together connections. None of them leak either. I do wonder about the impact of the plumbing in an RV that is moving and jostling all of the time and whether crimping is better than press-on. Given the flexibility in the pipes it seems that both could work well.
Sounds like a couple here have used the Shark Bytes with success in their rigs. I'm going to re-route the pex under my kitchen sink and have been considering this very issue.
