1. A vehicle comprising an engine, an automatic, robotic, or continuously variable transmission mechanically coupled to the engine, a four-wheel drive system, a vehicle control system coupled to the engine, the four-wheel drive system and the transmission, a braking system, a gas pedal for controlling the operation of the engine, a brake pedal for controlling the operation of the braking system, the gas pedal and the brake pedal being disposed in the vehicle for control by a right foot of the driver, the vehicle further comprising an additional pedal being disposed in the vehicle for control by a left foot of the driver and coupled to the vehicle control system, wherein the additional pedal is separate and distinct from the brake pedal and the gas pedal, wherein the additional pedal controls the four-wheel drive system of the vehicle and wherein the additional pedal for control by a left foot of the driver is not a pedal that controls gear shifting of the vehicle, the vehicle further comprising a second additional pedal for controlling the four-wheel drive system of the vehicle, wherein upon engagement of the additional pedal, rotation momentum is applied to at least one axle of the vehicle and wherein upon engagement of the second additional pedal, the rotation momentum is removed from the at least one axle of the vehicle. 2. The vehicle of claim 1, wherein the additional pedal is configured to control application of the rotational momentum to the at least one axle of the vehicle by controlling the four-wheel drive system of the vehicle. 3. The vehicle of claim 2, wherein the four-wheel drive system comprises a transfer case and wherein the application of the rotational momentum to at the least one axle of the vehicle is controlled by controlling the transfer case of the vehicle. 4. A method for controlling a vehicle comprising an engine, a four-wheel drive system, an automatic, robotic, or continuously variable transmission mechanically coupled to the engine, a vehicle control system coupled to the engine, the four-wheel drive system and the transmission, a braking system, a gas pedal for controlling the operation of the engine, a brake pedal for controlling the operation of the braking system, the gas pedal and the brake pedal being disposed in the vehicle for control by a right foot of the driver, the method comprising: providing an additional pedal being disposed in the vehicle for control by a left foot of the driver and coupled to the vehicle control system and controlling the vehicle using the additional pedal, wherein the additional pedal is separate and distinct from the brake pedal and the gas pedal, wherein additional pedal controls the four-wheel drive system of the vehicle and wherein the additional pedal for control by a left foot of the driver is not a pedal that controls gear shifting of the vehicle, wherein the vehicle further comprises a second additional pedal for controlling the four-wheel drive system of the vehicle, wherein upon engagement of the additional pedal, rotation momentum is applied to at least one axle of the vehicle and wherein upon engagement of the second additional pedal, the rotation momentum is removed from the at least one axle of the vehicle. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the additional pedal is configured to control application of the rotational momentum to the at least one axle of the vehicle by controlling the four-wheel drive system of the vehicle. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the four-wheel drive system comprises a transfer case and wherein the application of the rotational momentum to the at least one axle of the vehicle is controlled by controlling the transfer case of the vehicle.
