One thing to realize is that the DC motor would happily take full power
from the controller, and give you WAY over spec torque at the low end.

Hey all. I recently reconverted my Ford Ranger. It had an ADC 9"
series motor connected to the stock transmission, Raptor controller
and 144v pack. Now it has a Hyper 9 HV and controller, and a 160v
pack. The Hyper 9 is connected to a TorqueTrends single-speed gearbox.
For the most part I'm very happy with everything, especially since my
power consumption has gone from about 2.7 to 3.6 miles/kWh but it
feels to me like I have a problem at the low end. In normal driving
the truck accelerates like my old '64 Beetle used to. That's okay but
it's a real problem going up a hill. My driveway is rather steep and
the truck can only manage about 10mph going up the hill. If I stop on
the hill it won't move at all. Nor will it back up the driveway.
