Did some additional research...
In my state, it is illegal to register your car out of state if your car is operated more than 30 days a year in state. It appears (and the sources are a bit hard to find) that this is true in many states that have similar laws.
Anyway, it will always be true, that registering a car in Montana is tax evasion/fraud if the car is not garaged in Montana. Whether you become a target of enforcement is the only open question.
