Abstract: A drive control system and a utility vehicle incorporating the drive control system. The drive control system may include first and second drive control levers each adapted to independently control an output of an associated drive member. A coupler is interposed between the drive control levers and is configured to provide a synchronizing force. The synchronizing force may cause movement of one drive control lever to produce corresponding movement of the other drive control lever, thereby allowing straight-line vehicle travel via operator input to a single drive control lever. The synchronizing force may be overcome by application of independent forces to each of the two drive control levers.
