Burning crankcase oil?

I don't know if this is the right forum but just had to ask.
A friend of mine told me yesterday that he ran into a guy that has his own truck rental outfit and rents everything from Dodge's to full size rigs. He told my friend that he as he changes the oil in all these he filters the used oil & then puts it in the tank and burns it with out any problems. Can this be true? I said if it was I'd think everyone would do it. He told me that it wasn't a mix but straight oil. Some how I don't believe him!
