The official answer is that they wanted to focus on Freightliner and Western Star.

All in all, the trucks were junk. They were popular for daycab and vocational applications because of their spacious day cabs, but they never caught on for OTR driving, and for good reason. Aside from being rust prone and having poorly built interiors, the design was such that the engine was half covered, and, in a time when 14 - 15 liter engines were becoming the norm for OTR and line haul carriers, having to keep the engine fan running constantly was a bit on the unappealing side.
