Personally, here's how I see it....

1) Mounts. Single-seat only, moving at burst-run speed at most. These are kind of the lower-tier of vehicles, but do have benefits....they don't require the power and maintenance that vehicles do, thus they're a very inexpensive method of travel.

2) Vehicles....single seat vehicles like the Swoop Bike will still be expensive in their own right. I don't know if they'll be in the 500k mark....I can't imagine that a Swoop Bike would be as difficult or require as many resources as a PA Hall would. Even so, they'd be expensive in their own way (I'd think 100k or so), but then again they'd also require power and maintenance (maintenance based on usage). Swoop Bikes and "lower tier" vehicles would require Petrochemical Fuel as a very basic and low-tier method of power.

Next comes Land Speeders...these are actually multi-seat vehicles, seating up to four in it. They're significantly faster, but are obviously more expensive to make. They also require Radioactive Power.

Then you move on to whatever is a larger vehicle, maybe something that's slower-moving but can act like a house on wheels....like a Dune Barge or something similar. Runs at about normal running speed or so, but can be outfitted with furniture inside as well as weaponry (weapons to be "used" by actual players manning the guns). The larger vehicles also guzzle down specific types of Radioactive Power. The purpose of this is to allow a very wealthy person to have a mobile home of sorts, as well as weaponry for defensive purposes.
