Tank Grunt wants to be just like his old man. He spends his days lifting heavy things, dodging imaginary bullets, and being bigger than the other guy, but deep down inside, he wonders if anyone really knows who he is.
Tank Grunt is the eldest son of General Buzz Grunt and Lyla Grunt. He is the older brother of Ripp and Buck Grunt, and is distant from both of them. Tank is the General's only son who wants to follow his father into the Military career. Tank is the only teen in Strangetown that doesn't have any friends when the neighborhood is first played. Tank's name is an obvious reference to his military background and heritage.
Tank wants to be like his father some day, and follows in his footsteps. They have a good relationship, but Tank wants to impress him by getting a Military job. Tank's also part of the feud against the Smith family; he's enemies with Johnny Smith and wants to win a fight with him. If Johnny throws a party while still a teen, Tank will attempt to crash it.
When first played, he is 5 days away from becoming an adult. Either the Grunt household or the computer itself is scripted so that whenever Tank searches for a job, the result will always be the military career track.
Tank, his father, General Buzz, and brother, Ripp, all live together with the Smith family. Oddly, Buck doesn't appear in this game. Tank has let someone hack onto his computer and you have to repair it. During this time, he will constantly attack Ripp until his computer is fixed. You can sell secrets to Tank, but the one he wants to know is why Pollination Tech#9 Smith is outside around midnight, snooping by the alien crash site. You do not have to tell him, but if you choose not to, he will become very angry with you.
Unusually, Tank's eye colour in the PSP version is brown, but in the PC game, his eyes are blue. This is also the case with his brother, Ripp.
(Personal): Tank wanted to go into ballet, but his father forced him into the military.
(Intimate): Tank secretly blames Ripp for stealing his first love... an action figure named Missy McBoom.
(Dark): Tank once got punished by Buzz for being "too creative" with his face paint.
