Tropylium is
highly stable due to conjugated system, that being resonance stabilized
and the number of canonical forms of tropylium is more. But it is less stable
than tricyclopropylmethyl carbocation because tricyclopropylmethyl carbocation
undergoes a strong stability mechanism
factor that is sigma resonance or dancing resonance (sigma-tropic rearrangement ).
