American toilets are quite different than what you ' d usually find in Europe . The bowl is a lot wider and shallower , and the water level is much higher . The pipes are also a lot narrower , which is why you so frequently hearsee on TV about blocked toilets . <| sep |> Same here . Fingers crossed <| sep |> Clarkson ' s Top Gear now going by amazon ' s name of ' The Grand Tour ' has a stig replacement which is just some stereotypical large , loud american dude . He ' s not aweful by any means I think he ' s alright but he ' s just not the Stig . The Stig as a character wasn ' t able to go with the trio as the ' Stig ' character concept belongs to the BBC . Edit So the image in the post is basically just showing how the Stig is left sad and alone after his fathers got the boot or booted themselves from the show .
