Registration is managed at the state level. In Minnesota weight is not a factor. The registration tax for passenger class vehicles (cars, vans and pickups rated at less than one-ton, and one-ton passenger vans) is determined by the vehicle's base value and age. Minimum tax for vehicles 10 years old and older is $35.
The newer and more expensive your vehicle the higher the tax. In terms of road repair costs, that is collected via a gas excise tax.
