You are not always buying plush. Sometimes you pay for capability. Tugboat vs yacht.
$500,000 is not very much money for a HD truck with serious off-road capabilities. On-road, it won't even buy a motorcoach empty shell. It will get you a plastic box, with plush furnishings, on a rail chassis.
I suspect the people buying these have different values. It would probably take no more than another $100k to decorate the interior to look like a bordello, but that's a different market, for a different customer, well serviced by the RV industry here.
