Manual on the column? How old are you? I'm 49, and I remember growing up watching my parents drive a car with an on-the-column shifter. Then everything seemed to pretty much go to floor-mount. By the time I was driving, anything manual was on the floor. I have not seen an on-the-column shifter in forever.
