You are going to have to evaluate the maturity level of both and make a decision. I know 15 year olds I would sooner entrust everything I have than some 30 year olds I know. :roll:
If I may offer a few suggestion.
Wait until after your oldest is out of school. I do not know the laws in your state, but in some states if a child is living at home, still in high school, and is under 21 they are considered a minor and if left alone for long periods of time it can be considered neglect on a legal front. (Unless you want to give your oldest guardianship).
Wait on buying a truck until two things happen. First your financial situation stabilizes and improves and second until you both know that living and working together in a walk in closet suits you.
Fundamentaly there is nothing wrong with your plan, just be sure to set yourselves up for the best chance of success instead of stacking the deck for failure.
