National RV Tropical LX reviews

We live in Colorado so wanted a diesel pusher to make it up mountain roads without being stuck in the slow lane. This is our home away from home. With three slide outs, this RV is very comfortable to relax inside with the family on a rainy day and not be on top of each other. Decent size closet and drawers in master bedroom for longer trips. The sliding door for the bedroom allows for privacy from guests sleeping in the main area. Two bathroom sinks are helpful. The shower is roomy for larger sized adults. Adults sleep comfortably on the queen size pull out couch mattress that air inflates and is surrounded by a quilted, zip close, mattress cover. The dining room table folds down to sleep two more guests. The kitchen has lots of counter space and cabinets to make preparing meals easy. The two air conditioning units worked fantastic when we camped a Lake Powell in 100 degree weather. Storage down under is made easy with sturdy roll out units. The motorized awning is awesome for eating outside, protected from the sun and rain. We have many happy memories of camping trips to Yellowstone, Glacier, Arches, and Yosemite in our RV. One of our friends gave it the nickname "The Starship Enterprise." We have certainly explored the world's beyond! Show less

This is a great very well felt RV and we love ours. Great floor plan excellent quality good drivability, the only problem is that National RV went out of business so I can't say anything about the factory or warranty support on it otherwise it would get five stars all the way across! Show less

This is or second RV. We bought our 1st RV because we had an older dog we would not leave or board. So we decided to take a 2 day trip and take Hershey with us. The 1st RV was a gas burner and an inexpensive way to start but we found we loved the camping experience. After 2 years that RV began to delam in the walls and we knew we must trade. We knew we wanted a bigger shower and a more heavy RV. The gas burner bumped and road walked as it road so we chose a diesel. Our RV building had a 12 ft door opening so we needed an RV under 12 ft tall. We found this National Tropical and we loved it from the start. The shower was big and the water flow excellent. The cabinets were well built and was very stable on the road. Everything about this RV was so much nicer than we had experienced before. It was consistent and we had and still have confidence in this RV. We had a couple in our town sell their RV as he felt he no longer could drive. We decided to look at it as my husband had eye surgery and this RV had side cameras to help our senior self. We just put our items in the 3rd RV last week and I can tell you a couple of things I will miss from this National RV we have for sale. This RV has a cupboard of sorts by the refrigerator. It has about 5-6 pull out baskets that are wonderful for the foods. It also has a linen closet for towels and blankets and extra pillows. Our 3rd doesn't have either of these features and I miss them already. The slides work perfectly but if you part somewhere and do not want to put the out you can still walk the entire way from front to back easily. In the 3rd RV we bought we can not. So as far as floor plan and comfort this National tropical is excellent. We have really enjoyed this RV and we hope someone else will love it as much as we do. Show less

We drove a Tropical seven years before we bought this one and I told my wife then, that we would own one of these one day. Well, we found this one at a dealer in LA and bought it. Now 70,000 miles later and thirteen years later, we still love this motorhome. We are downsizing which is the only reason we have listed our motorhome. Show less

Wow, where to begin with the Regency Xalta Ranger. I guess I will make it simple before explaining... Every single thing on this RV either doesn't work or was built wrong. I cannot think of a single thing they got right. Except the platform. The Transit platform drives great. So lets start. The roof. The entire thing is dented from the build. Dips, dents, scratches, etc. The WHOLE roof is covered with it. Underside. The whole thing has equipment randomly placed in the worst positions possible. It has zero ground clearance because they randomly placed items underneath. The septic hose holder is at the very back 4 inches off the ground, the tanks are only 5 inches up. Just one thing after another. If you try to cross a high speed bump you will seriously rip off everything underneath. Electric. The cab electric works. From day one no other electric works at all. No solar, No alternator charging, no shore power. I take that back, shore power worked for about a week. The dealership only showed me the system with it plugged in. On the drive home nothing worked but I didn't know it. No refrigerator, no rooftop AC, no lights, drop down bed doesn't work. Nothing at all works. I have called regency and left 6 messages. Not a single call back. I called and texted the dealership (camper Clinic in Buda TX) over 10 times and have received exactly one call back. The sales person has never called me again since the day I drove off the lot. I have never heard a word from a manager or anyone except the one service guy who called back. He told me to bring it in and drop it off and he had no idea how long they would have it. When I told him I lived 13 hours away he suggested I fly back or find a closer dealership. The toilet. This one is funny. They apparently didn't know what expansion bolts are for a toilet seat so it was just laid in place with nothing holding it down. Can't flush it because it is an electric toilet so I'm not exactly sure if it works. Shower. Well I can't turn on the pump so I have no idea if it works. Stove. No idea. Kinda need power for that. The bathroom door opens to the front of the unit. So if you stop the van it slams into the opposite wall. Refrigerator door also opens every time you brake so all your food goes everywhere. Here is another funny one... Like every RV it has a circuit breaker/fuse box. I guess the door wasn't staying shut because they screwed a 1.5 inch phillips head screw right through the middle of it into the breakers. As bad as they built this, the most shocking thing is their complete lack of any sort of customer care. If you buy a regency and it breaks in 6 pieces as you cross the curb, you own all 6 and they aren't doing ANYTHING about it. Show less

We just bought our first motor home. I love our new home on wheels. The problem is we don’t have and can’t find an owners manual. We really need one to help us figure everything out. Any help would be appreciated Show less

Best quality material and interior design for the interiors.very good floorplan and space. The only issue is the insulation missing in fron and rear of the coach from the heat. Windows are large and prime view from inside Show less

Removed jacknife sofa and replaced with pullout sleeper sofa. Rv has been great replaced waterpump and alternator a couple of years ago due to lack of use. Rv is in great shape. Does have one scratch about 8" on driver side towards rear of cab up high occured on first trip at a gas station. The only other issue is the front driver and passenger side windows need to be resealed and have a quote from Suncoast Designers for $1,179 tax they are located in Hudson Fl. Show less
