No I can't use primer instead of paint. Because, Primers can also be used for dirty surfaces that for some reason, cannot be cleaned or before painting light colors over existing dark colors. Primers can usually be tinted to a close match with the color of the finishing paint.

No. UV rays from the sun will fade and break down the primer within a year. Primer normally needs to be recoated with a top coat within two weeks of application. Otherwise, another coat of primer is required.
Yes you can. As a mater of fact I once had a car that had nothing but primer on it for years. The only problem with it is that it is a little unattractive and can be a bit of a a cop magnet.
You brush it, roller it or spray it. -Whichever method, you DO need primer if you want a good finish coat.

No, it won't stick very well. However, a 100% acrylic paint will adhere very well to vinyl siding. Just insure that the paint you are using is no darker than the original color of the vinyl siding to avoid warpage.

Behr paint covers very well, but for only ten dollars more a gallon, you can get Behr's paint and primer in one.

Besides a few shades of black, white primer will reflect more light back than a gray primer under a paint color that doesn't cover well. Gray is often used under dark reds which would normally require several coats of paint to cover, The lighi that would normally be reflected from a white primer underneath the paint is, instead, absorbed by the gray primer, giving the illusion of an opaque surface. White primer is used under any light paint that covers well. It can also be tinted to the color of many off white or pastel wall colors to help ensure coverage using fewer coats.
Yes, you can because brown primer isn't that dark of a color.
You didn't mention whether you were using latex or oil based primer and paint, but generally the point of using primer is so that you can paint over it with any form of wall paint. Just read the label on your primer can to make sure it is compatible. On the other hand, if you wanted to paint the primer over the satin gloss, you need to sand the surface lightly to remove the sheen of the paint and provide a suitable surface for the primer to adhere properly.

You don't specify on what material you are using the primer on.In either case primer is paint that is made to seal and bond to the material you are painting, which in turn helps the regulat paint to bond. You CAN use primer as a final coat but the primer won't give you the hardness that a paint will or the shine, but there is no reason that you can't use it. Depends on the look you want. Hope this helps

It's always best (for the best quality) to paint with primer first, then your regular coat of paint. Let the primer dry sufficiently.
No you can not use primer as your paint because it has no sealing properites in it.

Preferably an oil-based primer. If oils are not available in your area, then a 100% acrylic primer will also work.
Paint primer is essential for many projects. If primer is sprayed onto the surface before painting, it will allow the paint to better adhere and create an even surface.
