Alright, alright, alright! Let's talk about propane... and the man who loves it: Hank Hill. We all know him, we all love him. But how old *is* the king of Strickland Propane?
Buckle up, buttercup. We're diving into the age of the Arlen, Texas legend.
Hank's Age: A Propane-Fueled Mystery
Here's the deal: Hank Rutherford Hill was born on April 14, 1956. That makes him a sprightly 69 years old in 2025. Yep, almost seventy! Time flies when you're selling propane and propane accessories.
He has lived a full life!
A Timeline of Hank's Life: "Yep."
Let's break down the key moments in Hank's journey, shall we?
The Early Years (1956-1980s)
Born and raised in Arlen, Texas, Hank probably spent his childhood learning the importance of a good handshake and a firm "yep." High school football stardom? Check. Bum knee? Double-check.
He was quite the athlete back then.
Strickland Propane & Family Life (1990s-2000s)
Hank becomes Assistant Manager (and later Manager) at Strickland Propane. He marries Peggy Platter and they have one child, Bobby. This era is basically the entire run of the show!
Lots of propane, lots of family shenanigans.
Post-Series Musings (2010s-2020s)
While the TV show ended, Hank's life (presumably) continued. We imagine him still managing Strickland Propane, still dispensing wisdom to Bobby, and still enjoying a cold Alamo beer with Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer.
Probably still fixing the lawnmower, too.

Hank Hill in 2025: Still Selling Propane?
In 2025, we can picture Hank doing what he does best. He is managing Strickland Propane with unwavering dedication. He is grilling steaks on his propane grill, and offering fatherly (if sometimes misguided) advice to Bobby.
Maybe he’s even considering retirement? Nah, probably not.
He is probably still frustrated by Dale's conspiracy theories. He is likely still tolerating Bill's misfortunes, and still struggling to understand what Boomhauer is saying.
He is probably still saying "Yep." A lot.
Honestly, Hank Hill is an American treasure. He embodies the values of hard work, honesty, and community. He is not a perfect man, but he is a good man. That's why we love him!
So here's to Hank, the king of the hill and the king of propane. May his grill always be hot and his beer always be cold!
