No, federal law prevails over conflicting state regulations due to the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. State regulations that conflict with federal regulations are considered preempted and are generally not enforceable.
State police typically have more power than a sheriff because they are responsible for enforcing state laws across the entire state. Sheriffs, on the other hand, are usually responsible for law enforcement within a specific county and their authority is limited to that jurisdiction. State police may also have additional resources and training compared to sheriff's departments.
If the sheriff breaks a county or state law, any law enforcment offical sworn to up the law can make the arrest. However, with most jurisdictions, this will be a very political situation and will most likely always involve the administration of both the arresting agency and the agency being arrested. the county corner is over the sheirff
Yes, but the warrant will still be active in the other state. If you are stopped by the police, they will arrest you and hold you until the first state decides whether or not to extradite you.

State Police
The first State Police in the US was the Pennsylvania State Police. Formed in 1905 by Governor Samuel Pennypacker to replace the Coal & Iron Police who were actually thugs hired by coal mine owners to control coal miners. Pennypacker wanted an independant law enforcement agency so no place in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was without proper fair police protection. The agency is still one of the finast in the US.

Police can work for a state, county, or city. At the federal level the FBI is a law enforcement agency. The State Police works in that specific state. Each State has their own State Police Divisions. Sheriff is County level. City Police is local.
I believe most cases that is going to depend on the jurisdiction that the agency is under. For example, here in AZ the Highway Patrol is a state agency and therefore funded by the state, where as the Phoenix Police Dept. is a city agency and is funded by the city.

Seizure of a vehicle by a state or local police agency has to be authorized by a court in the state where the seizure is made. If the vehicle is evidence in a crime, it wouldn't be difficult or unusual to get such a court order. A police agency couldn't just cross a state line and take a vehicle to bring it back into their state without a court order. If the seizure is being made by a federal agency, no state court order is necessary.
