Various places have been doing exactly this for decades and while I'm sure there are plenty of complaints, it's not exactly something you hear about on FOX news.
For example:

Motorbike $50.52
Vehicle with curb weight of 4,500 lbs or less with a payload capacity of 2,499 lbs or less. $95.42
Vehicle with curb weight of 4,501 lbs or more with a payload capacity of 2,499 lbs or less. $151.55
Vehicle, Truck, pickup truck with ... a gross weight of 16,000 lbs or less or with a payload capacity of 2,500 lbs or more. $224.51
Truck or vehicle with a gross weight of 16,001 lbs or more with a payload capacity of 2,500 lbs or more. $505.16
Interestingly, minivans are most commonly the thing that surprise people. The lower trim levels usually qualify for the $95 annual sticker but the upper trim levels just barely cross the threshold and must pay the $151 annual sticker.
