Abstract: A low profile vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes front and rear modules joined to one another by a central truss. The vehicle further includes an operator seat with a bottom cushion having a support surface that is below an axle line of a wheel connected to the front module. The vehicle can include a mower assembly that is carried by the rear module. A steering linkage can be included to change an angle of the front module relative to the central truss and the rear module in a horizontal plane, allowing the vehicle to be steered. A ram acting on a rear pivot assembly can be included to change an angle of the rear module relative to the central truss and the front module in a vertical plane, allowing a height of the mower assembly to be varied.
