If Hank Hill uses propane for his stove, dryer and heat, then why don't we see a propane tank sitting somewhere on the property?
Edit: Maybe his subdivision has it piped to them? But I honestly don't believe that everyone on Rainey Street agreed to pay for it when natural gas is a lot more affordable.
Basement/crawlspace/garage.
When I was looking to buy a house, I viewed a house where it was in the garage.
I have never seen one in the garage, and in the episode where Dale digs a tunnel under Hank's house, he doesn't have a basement and it doesn't look like there is one in his crawlspace. But I suppose the crawlspace would be the last possible place it could be.
You watch too much King of the Hill, I think...
I guess. But those require more maintenance than above ground tanks, are more expensive to install and are usually only meant for colder climates. Plus, in the episode "Arrow Head" an archeologist digs up their lawn and is driving heavy machinery all over the property. You can't have vehicles driving on an underground propane tank.
I just don't buy the underground tank theory.
