It's $10K minimum on your first offense here, plus they add felony tax fraud, plus they make you tow the vehicle to a repair facility to have every last drop of it purged from your fuel system at your expense....they pretty much stick to dipping trucks & pickups though, especially those with the in bed tanks for equipment. There's advantages to some locals living out in the sticks and driving the barely traveled backroads to work though, I'll leave it at that.
