Default Garage heating

I'm being lazy... has anyone done the calculations comparing setting up electric heat vs gas heat to warm up a garage?

Thinking about 4500W (15 MBTU/h) should do it...

But then I'd need to pipe in the gas and exhaust it plus fuel and electric costs to operate.

The electric would need a new dedicated circuit to handle the load. But no exhausting needed.

Intuitively the electric seems to be the way to go, and I'll do the numbers, but thought I'd ask hive mind for some feedback as well.
