Depends on your state laws. Ask your local DMV for this answer.
When a CA title has 2 names on it the way the names are recorded will decide who can sell the vehicle. If the names on the title read "person 1 / person 2" then both parties would have to sign off title to sell vehicle but when the title reads "person 1 or person 2 then only one of the two people have to sign the title in order to sell the vehicle. So basically if the names are recorded with a / (meaning end) between the names then both parties must sell but if the names are recorded with an OR between them then only one person has to sign off title for sale. Other states may be different, so check with your DMV to be sure. In some, "or" is used instead of "/."
Yes they can. Both of their names can be on the title!
If the names are joined with "OR" or "AND/OR", either can go to the DMV and have the title changed. If there is just an "AND", they will both have to sign.
Only the driver. When there are 2 names on the title, it's usually because someone helped cosign.
no
both
It depends on who's name was placed on the title. If both names were were placed on the title with an "and" between them, then the car is owned jointly. If on "or" was used then the whoever has the title could sell it. If just one name was placed on the title then that person owns the vehicle. It depends on who's name was placed on the title.

Both people own the car. If the names on the title show John Doe "and" Jane Doe, the title must be signed by both John and Jane before it can be sold. If it shows John Doe "or" Jane Doe, only one signature is required to be able to sell it.
Yes
If your names BOTH appear on the title - yes - you will both have to sign.
Not in NY state. Others may be different. Check at your DMV.
Honestly, there is no legal answer to this question. It really depends on the two people involved. Since both people are paying the mortgage regardless of percentages (you can't put a percentage on the title) both people are entitled to the property. If something were to go sour between the two people it is not fair that either should lose what they put in. So the ideal adult thing to do would be to have both names on the title because you both agreed to buy it together.
