What's the "E" in 4EAT?

I can only assume I'm smart enough to figure out the 4 and the AT.

4EAT = 4 speed Electronic Automatic Transmission.

It's a generic term for all 4-speed electronically controlled automatics.

The Ford auto tranny in the 5.0 Mustangs was coded as the AOD4 (Automatic, OverDrive, 4 speed. Often referred to as the "Angel Of Death"). But it's sometimes refferred to as a 4EAT when using it in conversation. It flows better to say 4EAT Mustang, than to say AOD4 Mustang.
