I think this dataset is better just removing the MLS. In grouping the North American major sports leagues the “Big Four” of the NFL, MLB, NBA, and NHL are much more commonly used.

And if you use those you get the funny effect of Los Angeles having fewer championships than Montreal, who is running on hockey alone.

Yes. 2 factors behind the low costs:

a.) I'm on a remote-centered work schedule meaning I only have to commute to the office 1x/week.

b.) I drive an alternative fuel vehicle, specifically a compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicle. Typically CNG is 1/3-1/2 the price of gasoline. When gasoline spiked to over $5 or whatever it was, I didn't even blink. I was filling up for around $1.89/gge. [Filled up for even cheaper in March/April for $1.26/gge and $1.30/gge]. A "full tank" of gas costs me me $7-10 and gives me 250 miles of range.

I also track my driving/fuel-ups for the year and here are some numbers.

  • 2022 Total Miles Driven: 4832

  • Total Fuel Cost: $234.55

  • Cost/mi: $0.049
