The only reason it could be a felony is when a habitual traffic offender with a suspended license operates a motor vehicle. Most other cases are misdemeanor.
I guess it must depend on what state you're in. I know for a fact that it's a class C felony in Oregon. It doesn't depend on whether your license is suspended or whether you've committed previous traffic offenses. It's not a traffic violation, it's a theft charge, so at least your insurance won't go up!
