My driveway is gravel, about 4:1 near the top for the last 100'. I usually have to charge to the top with the selector in 2 at 2000 RPM to avoid spinning and rutting the driveway. The anti-spin circuitry takes too much power off so I just use my foot to keep the power steady. The guy's truck was right at the top and I was so surprised to see it when I rounded the corner that I think I just stopped and allowed the car to sink slowly down the hill, back to the fork. When I put the selector in D, I realized the engine was dead...
