It looks like MtGox gives alot more per BTC than BTC -e . Is there any reason one would sell to BTC-e over GOX?

The factors that matter for any cash-out decision are:
- Where are you located (country)? [You mention USD and America]
- How much are you looking to trade?
- What type of cash are you looking to receive?
- How soon do you need access to the proceeds?
- Is privacy important?
In the U.S., there are many methods where a bank account linked to Coinbase is a fairly quick and inexpensive method (1% fee):
- http://www.Coinbase.com
Now, "cheapest" is relative to the exchange rate you can get. At this current moment there are more cash buyers on BitMe and BitFloor than there are sellers. So you can get a premium for selling on these exchanges. Both provide an ACH (bank transfer) withdrawal method. Camp BX is another exchange with good rates and there you can withdraw to Dwolla, and with a bank account linked to Dwolla you can withdraw from there to your bank account.
If you want cash in-hand, then LocalBitcoins is probably going to work best for you. You may need to sell at spot rate or below even to attract a buyer, depending on your local market:

Meet up with people from your area for cash money 
I like coinbase, but some aren't comfortable linking their bank account.
The LTC would have to be converted to BTC @ Vircurex or BTC-e prior to transferring to coinbase and selling.
