This was a marketing and culture issue mostly. The "modern era" was upon them...
The floor shifter was looked upon as passe, something for trucks, and not friendly for women drivers, etc. Plus couldn't sit close in front. This thinking led into the automatics eventually. just as the "floor hump" went away with front wheel drive.
