Buck knows where all the scumbaggery is festering and Hank looks up to him like a hero. I remember that episode where Hank told him he loved him in front of Cotton and Cotton starts roasting Hank every chance he gets.
COTTON: You hate me, do you? After all the love I allowed your mother to give you!
My boy Thatherton is basically a younger and smarter version of Buck and Hank stays hating.

Hank played himself in that episode by trying to get that account for Strickland Propane.

Hank was fiercely loyal to Buck because he took Hank out of "Jeans West" in the mall (Real men don't sell jeans.
) and introduced him to the world of propane and propane accessories. 

hank gave strickland when he promoted the suit over hank when he had the heart attack.
) and even found some guy to become the male model in the logo, who would MARRY Luanne
, and they would all live happily ever after as a nut-ass family.
