I gave it a shot with driving included in the average at a value of 0. There were three apparent groups (internal sorting in in increasing order of price):

<200

Chicago

255-300
Atlanta
Los Angeles
Dallas
Indianapolis
St. Louis
Houston
Phoenix
Orlando

375+
New Orleans
Vegas

This data is not particularly authoritative, however it needs more information before we can draw any definitive conclusions. Some interesting observations:
  • Chicago is in a league of its own!
  • Los Angeles isn't measurably more expensive than Atlanta

If we could get a complete list of team postal codes, or even cities, that would go a long way to making an authoritative chart.
