    yes you can the insurance is the hardest part as it be insured to you and him as driver hope he has a good record. get leased on somewhere they can help cut that cost a bit plus if you get the MC # you don't pay sales tax not sure if you get away with the no sales tax without the MC# or not.

    You can own a class 8 truck without being a CDL holder. Insurance will be a small problem. (the cost).

    that's why I said lease on to a company they have one to get you own you need to get your own authority and that a big deal plus high costs and I would guess more than you want to do to put your brother in-law in a truck.
    Follow Chiantown's advice check with OOIDA
