In other words, if somebody else has the power of attorney over the title of the vehicle, have them be the trustee, or sign power of attorney to you, so that you can be the trustee.

I may be misunderstanding you...
This sounds like it might be where my confusion is. I have heard of the power of attorney in passing from time to time without giving it much thought because I associated it with (probably incorrectly) the right to be appointed one along with some other (also probably incorrect) assumptions. However, in other threads of this site I have heard the phrase used in a peculiar fashion. I have only read this about "power of attorney." I do not find it helpful because there are no references explaining any of the mechanics of the document; if I knew about this more it might be of some help. If you have any material that will or might help please share!
