    He probably suffocated, that gas takes all the oxygen out of the air and with that much pressure and volume....

    That's what I was thinking.

    I've been in that road plenty of times. It's straight. Makes me wonder if he was texting.

    I dont recall that. I remember propane was a byproduct from natural gas processing and petroleum processing, and propylene is the main ingredient for polypropylene which is a type of plastic. It is also used as an alternative to propane usage.
