MT is the cheapest out of the box. Yes,people are going to drop money on their truck no matter what. Broken or not,they will go out and from $100,even $500 at a time on upgrade parts. Either it be a motor,pipe,or just items that will make it look good.
So as we all know that this hobby is cheap to get into. But once the bug has taken hold on our little minds,the wallet opens,and our hard earned money goes flyin. For some,they can fight and resist. Either they are strong enough to do that,or a GF/Wife is behind them with the fry pan. Then there are others(like myself) that are weak,we see an upgrade item and before we know it. The deal is done.
So saying one class is cheaper then another can and should only apply to the kit itself. Because everything after that is based on how strong the owner is when it comes to buying parts(besides replacement).
As for MT,depending on the truck. Every truck is race worthy. But a little or alot of money can be spent to get it 1st place worthy. That depends on the truck and what the owner thinks he needs. The Revo for one is a truck that you can take out of the box. Either the 2.5r or 3.3 are stong enough to win. So one just needs to slap on a servo,rims/tires and have that chance to win(if you have the skill and/or luck). That is why to me,the Revo is the best truck to start racing with.
