We build every National RV to far surpass the competition in every aspect. Look for this banner throughout the following pages for more information on important items that help make up

The National RV Advantage.

Tropi-Cal is the modestly priced

diesel motorhome with many

luxury appointments usually

found on much more expensive

highline motorcoaches. For 2006,

Tropi-Cal once again features

a level of style and amenities

unique in its class. For that extra

touch of opulence, Tropi-Cal LX

boasts upgraded interior and

exterior styling as well as several

standard equipment upgrades.

Like all National RV motorhomes,

Tropi-Cal sets the standard in its

class for chassis and coach body

construction, continuing

National RV’s belief in the

superiority of such concepts as

welded tubular steel framing, EPS

block foam insulation and one-

piece fi berglass exterior surfaces.

THE NATIONAL RV ADVANTAGE1 T397 CAPRI - CHERRY Expansive, dual living area slide-outs (most fl oorplans) provide spacious interior living areas.

2 T398 RIVIERA Tropi-Cal LX features lustrous 3-color full body exterior paint.

3 T330 NAIROBI - CHERRY This unique side-aisle fl oor plan features spacious living areas in a compact overall coach length. Turn to page 18 to see all of Tropi-Cal’s interesting fl oor plans, and fi nd one that’s just right for you.

4 T350 NAIROBI Exterior enhancements include stylish hand molded fi berglass caps, black ladder and awning hardware.

Kustom-Fit® SeatingBuilt especially for National RV, this cockpit and living area seating exceeds the comfort and quality of furniture in much more expensive “highline” motorhomes. The exclusive cold poured foam and fully welded steel frames will provide years of driving and relaxation comfort.

COLD POURED SEAT FOAM

Each cushion is formed as a single piece, molded in the correct shape. Competitors’ seats are pieced together from blocks of foam which can come unglued and fall apart. This seat foam is so durable it carries a 10 Year Warranty.

STEEL SEAT FRAME

Constructed of welded tubular steel for superior strength; carries a lifetime warranty.

Driving Comfort

Getting there is half the fun with Tropi-Cal’s

ergonomically designed cockpit and convenient

driver and entertainment controls. With many

features designed to reduce driver fatigue and

increase safety, Tropi-Cal will get you to your

destination relaxed and ready for fun!

DuraSlide™ Flush WallSlide-Out System

National RV’s exclusive DuraSlide™ fl ush wall slide-out system provides more than just great looks. It is a testament to the engineering and quality manufacturing that go into every National RV motorhome.

Flush Exterior Surface with Slide-Out Closed

With the slide-out fully retracted, the side of the coach has a smooth, fl ush surface at the slide-out seal. Double wipers with integrated bulb seals provide a positive seal even when the slide-out is in motion, keeping the weather outside and your cozy climate inside.

WHY DON’T ALL MOTORHOMES COME WITH FLUSH SLIDE-OUT SEALS?

National RV’s careful engineering and tight manufacturing tolerances are what make the fl ush slide-out seal possible. The system depends on the rigid coach framework that National RV’s DuraFrame and tubular steel coach body framework provides.

Manufacturers who cut costs by building cheaper, less rigid motorhomes need to hide the resulting gaps and poorer fi t by using a wide, protruding cover along the slide-out seams.

Fine Dining

Campfi res are great for evening socializing. But when

it comes to cooking, nothing beats Tropi-Cal’s fully

equipped, spacious kitchens. Expansive Corian® counter

tops, convection microwave and a huge 12 cubic-foot

double door refrigerator with ice maker make preparing

meals on the road as joyful as at home. You’ll want to

throw out your old “camp recipes” and bring along your

gourmet cookbooks instead!

7 T397 CAPRI - CHERRY Standard booth dinette.

8 T370 CAPRI - MAPLE Optional dining table with free-stand-ing chairs, includes two wooden folding chairs (not shown) (not available on T330 or T340).

10 T397 CAPRI - CHERRY Steel ball bearing drawer glides provide 45 lbs. of smooth operating drawer capacity.

11 T350 BELIZE - CHERRY Carpet-lined shelves in base cabinets reduce noise while traveling.

Genuine Corian® Solid Surface Counter Tops

National RV insists on using only genuine Corian® solid surface materials on all of our kitchen counter tops. Other manufacturers cut costs by using imitation materials or laminates cleverly disguised with solid edge moldings. But we insist on the real thing. Nothing is as durable, impervious to stains and resistant to scratching than genuine Corian®.

In addition to the kitchen counter, Tropi-Cal LX features genuine Corian® throughout the coach, including the dinette or dining table top, night stand tops, lavy cabinet top and bedroom dresser tops.

Insulated Basement Compartments

Made with the same materials and methods as our laminated sidewalls, the storage compartment fl oor panels and door inserts of every National RV motorhome are laminated with highly effi cient EPS block foam insulation to keep your valuables safe from temperature extremes.

Power On

Tropi-Cal excels in many

areas beyond interior style

and amenities. Huge pass-

through basement storage bays*

provide plenty of room for the

treasures you’ll fi nd along the

way. Utility systems such as

electrical, plumbing and climate

control keep your home away

from home running smoothly with

the comfort and convenience you

would expect from your primary

residence. And of course,

Tropi-Cal will turn heads on the

road and at your favorite campsite

with bold exterior graphics—

including sumptuous full-body

paint and distinctive black

exterior hardware.

One-Piece Fiberglass RoofEvery National RV motorhome is completely surrounded in durable, beautiful gel coat fi berglass. The roof is no exception. A durable exterior sheath of fi berglass reinforced polyester (FRP) is vacuum-bonded directly to the roof structure. The National RV one-piece fi berglass roof is much more durable, easier to maintain and keeps its great looks longer than the rubber, aluminum or pieced-together roofs of competing motorhomes.

Superior Coach Body Construction

National RV uses an advanced vacuum lamination process and the highest quality materials in the construction of the fully insulated roof, walls and fl oor.

TUBULAR STEEL FRAME

Stronger and less susceptible to work fatigue than aluminum and won’t decay like wood.

CROWNED ROOF

The best RV roof in the business is built with arched tubular steel roof trusses. The crowned roof has radius edges for superior runoff.

FIBERGLASS ROOF SKIN

A seamless barrier against moisture; more durable and easier to maintain and repair than rubber or aluminum.

¼" STRUCTURE-WOOD®

This oriented strand board (OSB) from Weyerhaeuser carries a 25 year warranty and is used for both the roof deck and interior ceiling panel.

EPS BLOCK FOAM INSULATION

Used throughout the coach in every laminated coach body component. This foam won’t settle or sag like spun fi berglass insulation. Insulation is up to 5½” thick in the roof, and completely surrounds the coach living areas. It’s even in the fl oor!

¼" THICK MAHOGANY INTERIOR WALL PANEL

A thick, fi rm interior wall surface that’s tough enough to anchor our cabinetry—and whatever pictures or fi xtures you care to hang, wherever you want to hang them.

Competitors’ thin interior wall surfaces “give” when you push them, revealing their weakness beneath the surface, with reinforcements built in only where necessary to attach cabinets. Our interior wall surfaces are ¼" thick and rigid

throughout!

HIGH GLOSS GELCOAT EXTERIOR

The exterior sidewall surface is made of a thick, resilient fi berglass gelcoat sheet that is vacuum laminated to the sidewall structure. The result is excellent resistance to delamination and long-lasting great looks.

A Solid Foundation

Every great home needs a solid foundation,

and that’s exactly what National RV’s

DuraFrame® Chassis System and all-steel

tubular coach body construction provide. It

all rides on the proven Freightliner® chassis,

powered by the legendary Caterpillar® C7*

diesel engine and smooth-shifting Allison®

automatic transmission.

Tropi-Cal’s 10,000 lb. Class IV tow hitch is anchored directly to the all-steel DuraFrame® Chassis System structure.

DuraFrame® Chassis System

The DuraFrame® Chassis System is specifi cally engineered to provide the strength that today’s multiple slide-out motorhomes require—all within the chassis system itself. DuraFrame’s all steel, fully welded system of tubular steel risers, plate steel outriggers and truss-like engineering provide an abundance of coach strength while enabling cavernous basement storage spaces. Other manufacturers rely on the coach sidewalls to absorb much of the stresses of traveling and carrying the coach’s weight. But the multiple slide-outs of today’s luxury motorhomes blow huge holes in that strategy. That’s why the DuraFrame® Chassis System provides all of the strength necessary to support the coach within the DuraFrame® structure—below the fl oor line and below the slide-outs.

REVOLUTIONARY NEW VIBRATION ISOLATION SYSTEM

Rather than being rigidly welded directly to the chassis frame rails, Tropi-Cal’s DuraFrame® and coach body structure rides on a series of elastomeric body mounts which isolate the coach body from much of the noise, vibration and harshness generated while traveling on the road. This system is designed to reduce noise and vibration while improving handling and increasing the life expectancy of coach body components. Take a test drive in a 2006Tropi-Cal—you will hear and feel the difference!

1 All coach body panels—sidewalls, fl oor, roof, rear bulkheads and slide-out boxes—are framed in rigid, fully welded tubular steel for superior strength and longevity that other materials just can’t match.

2 Thick EPS block foam insulation is precisely fi t into the steel framework of every coach body panel. EPS foam maintains its integrity over time and won’t settle and sag like fi berglass blanket insulation does.

3 Advanced industrial adhesives are carefully metered between each layer of the laminated coach body component. Next the assembly is vacuum bonded to form a single, impervious unit that possess all of the qualities of the input components.

4 State of the art computer numerically controlled (CNC) routers cut window, slide-out and other openings with amazing precision. National RV invests heavily in the latest technologies to ensure quality and effi ciency.

5 Completed components are carefully installed on the main assembly line. Sidewalls are installed with a unique fastening system that places the weight of the coach body onto the tubular steel frame—not on the fasteners themselves.

Experience

Over the past 42 years, National

camper manufacturer to

one of America’s premiere

builders of class “A”

motorhomes. In that time

we’ve learned a thing or

two about building and

backing quality motorhomes

that last. That’s why so

many of our owners come back

to National RV to make their next

motorhome purchase. Our quest

for increasing levels of quality and

customer service is never ending.

SINGLE LOCATION MANUFACTURING

National RV has grown through reinvesting in its own products and facilities in sunny Southern

California. Designing and building everything at a single location results in consistent quality

across product lines, increased effi ciencies and a proud, loyal workforce in the company’s home

community. When you buy a National RV, you’ll never wonder whether it came from our "best"

plant. They’re all built in Perris, and they’re all the best we can do.
