Methods can include: receiving an indication to operate a vehicle in a winch mode; detecting movement of the vehicle caused by a force from a winch of the vehicle; determining of a speed of movement of the vehicle caused by the force from the winch pulling the vehicle; and providing for control of at least one driven wheel of the vehicle to rotate at a speed corresponding to the speed of movement of the vehicle within a predefined degree of similarity. According to some embodiments the speed of movement of the vehicle is determined based at least in part on a speed of rotation of at least one wheel not being driven by the powertrain of the vehicle.",
