THE ALL NEW MINI JEEP IS HERE! BUT IS IT TOO BIG?

The Tractor Supply Mini Jeep Is Incredibly Popular. They are selling out EVERYWHERE! We were been sent a Mini 125 Jeep and it may be one of the craziest and most fun thing to ride on our property. The Mini 125 is a 125cc 3 speed Jeep style vehicle sold through Massimo's website as well as retailers like Tractor Supply, Company. The MIni Jeep comes in many colors like red, green, blue, sand, etc. With a spare tire and gas can, the look of the mini 125 is authentic and aggressive. We have had a great experience evaluating the mini 125 and have had kids and adults each spend time behind the wheel. The gasoline engine in the mini jeep is started easily with electronic ignition and a choke. Service is very simple and oil changes and maintenance seem like they would be very simple as well. The Jeep comes with military looks and is built tough! With many retailers like Tractor Supply selling thousands of them and high quality scores it is no wonder why mini jeeps are so popular! We have now been sent the ALL NEW Massimo Jeep Style machine and with a 300cc fuel injected motor, independent suspension, cvt transmission, etc it has actually become a real work machine! Now, let's keep things real...it's not going to replace your 1000cc side by side. BUT, with a 2 inch receiver it may just be the small machine people want for a small property. Join us as we take a deep dive into this ALL NEW machine!

This was a blast to film. Something about these little machines brings the kid out in me. Let me know what you think...is it too big? Are we getting to where just buying a jeep makes more sense? For more videos like this, click here! ===>>>>> www.youtube.com/@JoeTheFarmer?sub_confirmation=1

[@Doc1855]

@@JoeTheFarmer It’s actually the right size. We own 1/2 of a mountain here in north central Washington state, so a 4X4 is a must. It’s the right size for getting into tight spaces when we’re towing a trailer for hauling cut firewood off the mountain, hauling topsoil and steer, or horse manure to our garden areas. We have a small section of our land that is flat, so that’s where we planted a 12 fruit tree orchard. I had to plant the trees in a zigzag pattern because of the size available. That “Jeep” is the perfect size for getting in and around our orchard. The CVT transmission won’t take the abuse of the work for our needs. For that small of an engine, a 3 spd manual transmission would be great. A “granny” gear, then a gear for running up to 15 mph and the 3rd gear for running down the mountain to town to get the mail. During late spring, all summer and early fall everyone who has a side X side uses them for going to town for whatever they need. One of our neighbors has a 2 horse team that pulls his literal wooden wagon to and from town. The same old man has an old Jeep Cherokee that he rolled. He cut the top off of it and removed the rear seats and put a couple of 2X6 on their side for a makeshift tailgate. He wears a helmet when driving it. You didn’t mention the size of the engine, the horsepower or torque. These are important things to know. It would be nice to plow our driveway instead of using the snow thrower. We have to use our tractor to plow our private road. We get 5-7 feet of snow every winter. I’m thinking about getting a plow for my 23 Tacoma TRD Off Road. Then I can stay warm in the cab while plowing. That open tractor gets cold.

[@dangerrangerrob4664]

where did you buy that one or did they send it to you i know the little 125 is at tractor supply but are they going to be available there or just online, as of now on the massimo website there sold out 😭

[@JoeTheFarmer]

300cc’s. Will share more info in a follow up

[@Doc1855]

@@dangerrangerrob4664 I stopped buying anything from Tractor Supply when they went Woke

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Massimo is a channel partner. They provided the machines. I’m sure they will have more at TSC soon, but they do sell a ton of them

[@user-lg7gp6fg3g]

An option for a soft top for rain. 4x4 with low range would be a huge plus. Marine grade cigarette outlet would be nice. Electric fan for the radiator. Snorkel kit add on options. Skid plate for under the body options. Basically, just having it customizable will keep the price low, but you’re able to make it as beefed up as you want it to be.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Great feedback; thank you!

4 x 4 would make a lot of sense

[@JoeTheFarmer]

That would be very cool. This one actually has the power to run with 4x4. Maybe even a bit larger engine with 4x4 would be cool. What do you think they should charge?

[@williamsisk2897]

I'm in agreement, 4x4 Is a good option, especially if used in snow or sand.

[@dianem.1310]

Agreed!!! I was so sad when I heard 2WD.

[@Zach-sg5uu]

No, just get a set of narrow tall tires on it for mud and some big fat tires on it for sand and a locker!

[@McBuggs.]

Have 2 Options: 2WD with HD 2000LB winch, front & rear tow hooks, $3000 U.S.. Optional 4x4 with HD 2000LB winch, front & rear tow hooks, $4200 U.S.. The reviews give these a 1 & 2 Star rating out of 5. So the quality is not very good meaning you'll need to shop at a high end dealer for better built equipment, but obviously pay more.

[@Rumblestrip]

4wd option, winch mount, bigger radiator and onboard coolant storage. Longer wheel base for a decent storage bed and have the seats actually mounted where it belongs. Option to go to larger power plant, 500cc range would be nice. Just my 2 cents

I've had my mini for a few months and the only issues I've had are a leaking bead on a rear tire, 2 bushings in the front were shot when I bought it, the horn button got stuck, and the ignition switch is wearing out already. Me and my son are still having a blast with it though. My spare is still holding air and I am one of the ones who uses the gas can. I wanna go find one of these new ones and play with it for a bit.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

This one is fun brother! Glad that you are enjoying the 125. We are too. It's not perfect, but it's a great little machine and loctite goes a long way.

[@cadilakisrodcustom]

@@JoeTheFarmer were loving the 125, im hoping to have one of the bigger ones next year probably.

[@whiterook85]

Looks fun, but you look big in it as always! 😆 If it's not 4-wheel, you may need a winch on the front. I think you hit it when you said "light duty side by side". Keep them coming Joe!

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks for watching Rook! Yeah, I don’t really get a pass on size. But it’s a fun side by side for a small property where folks want to get some light work done. Will be interesting to see what the market thinks. Hope all is well my friend!!!

[@davepatti2296]

I like it. Basically a 2wd ATV with car seat and steering wheel. A larger rear rack for a chainsaw/fuel can and carry some tools and I'd really consider one.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It really drives well. The mini jeep is a gokart so not really “balanced” or refined. But this one is really well put together. I could have sworn it had power steering. But I don’t think it does. But the drive ability is very clean. Definitely too stiff on the suspension, but planning to change that.

[@americanrambler4972]

I like this little puppy. There is little need to make this a 4x4. If you do, you more than double the price and weight. This is mostly a golf cart style chassis. So not intended to take the bashing and beating of a regular 4x4 side by side. This is more in the realm of an old fashioned style dune buggy in form and function. Light weight and rear wheel drive. Maybe use a matching Myers Manx style dune buggy body to avoid the 4x4 impression and underscore it’s a 2x4. And a fun utility ride. Maybe even do some big and littles on the rear/front wheels. Also, with this chassis construction and layout, it could also be offered in an electric battery version with a proper electric motor instead of those cheapie Alibaba washing machine motor EVs people are getting that are terrible drivers and chintzy construction. That big open space between the wheels in the front would house a decent battery.

[@toastyghostyofdeath3909]

Id like to see a 4x4 option. A more willy jeep like front. And maybe a cargo net or hook points for a cargo net in the back. Make the windshield collapsible.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Love the windshield idea. That would be awesome.

[@tazsnoop1044]

Would love one of them . They should come out with extras lift kits, long travel suspension, winch , diff locks, the fun you could have

Keep the slotted grill of the mini. Just a looks thing but I like that look on my mini. Like that it already has a 2” receiver. Very cool lil jeep for sure! Hope to see more of this.

Hey Bryan, will be more of it for sure! The slotted grill is Jeep specific. I'm sure they prob made them change it.

[@peterhealey2668]

The little jeep is a blast, but this one is just different. Still cool and fun to ride; but just more stable and "car" like. I could totally see people using these in a neighborhood or on a good size property. It's not going to replace the workhorse utv's, but it is a capable little machine.

[@urdumb2593]

So you really bought this thing for 59 dollars? Cuz that's what theyre advertising lol

That's awesome man. Where did you get it? Didn't think they were out yet.

[@scottbarnwell512]

Question: Behind the seats can you fit two or three 5-gallon buckets? Options: * For looks, I'd like an option to replace the rail with a roll-bar like a 1979 CJ5. * For practicality, front and rear bumper hooks * For flexibility, 2" receiver in the front bumper Price: Since Tractor Supply sells Massimo's Buck 250 for $6299 they should offer this for $5799

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Hey Scott; this is super helpful. Great post. I think 5 gallon buckets could fit pretty easily, I’ll measure. Great idea. My thought was a nice sized cooler and fishing tackle but the bucket makes a ton of sense. And for pricing I think you are where I am at. Thanks for watching!

[@mervynsowman51]

I like that its got double wishbone independent rear suspension. I assume its still chain driven. Is that a differential? I think a diff lock or limited slip diff would be a good idea.

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

Im happy to see a shaft driven atv diff. Id love to see lockers and 4x4. Looks like they may have plans to based on the shock placement on the front upper a arms. Its a smaller carbon copy of Early 2000s side by side suspension.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks for sharing that. By your handle chances are you are more of an expert than most. I think it's a really well put together machine. It's a small engine (300 cc's) but it really drives great. Plenty of power. So much fun!

[@blazeorangeandcamo]

I've seen 4x4 versions available in Asia but none imported to the USA, they have 250-350cc engines all with CVT transmissions (kind of a bummer if you ask me) but the cost would be around $8500 here, probably be better off with a genuine used Jeep.

[@xMrBlack]

I would say, if anything, this one is the perfect size and the other one is too small.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I would agree if you need to get work done. The mini jeep really is fun; kind of silly but that's what makes you smile the whole time you are driving it! I especially look ridiculous on it; but it's a blast. This new one really is a light duty sxs. The 2" receiver is a game changer as well as being liquid cooled. It's not going to tow a pallet of concrete, but a small trailer with brush, or firewood, or a rack with fishing tackle would be no problem. The only purpose of the mini jeep is fun...this one is a different story. Thanks for watching!

Roxor being a turbo diesel with 4x4 is a huge selling point in my opinion. From what I can tell they can be made into some very capable machines for not a lot of money.. The machine you have there is still pretty go cartish in my opinion, just on a bigger scale. Cool looking little rig tho..

A roll bar and shoulder belt restraints would be an absolute must for me. Not just for safety but as a platform for some kind of top. Even a minimal bikini top. Then I'd like to see another 2 inch hitch receiver on the front. Would be a good sized machine for parking trailers around the property. That said, unless this sells for around $4K I wouldn't be interested. I'm guessing they're going to sell it for around $5500-$6000 though. At that price, a used Jeep Wrangler starts making more sense.

[@MichaelStoneqm3]

I think they'll charge around $8700 but my 2 cents, it better have things it can do for that, i.e tow & plow are the most important. They can make extra money on a tow behind cart and a special small plow for like the driveway.

That is awesome!!! I want a mini Jeep but the 125 is I’m afraid too small. This is just big enough to be comfortable with a passenger and actually have enough power/room/suspension to be fun for more than strictly novelty. I think 4,000 is fair. More than that and I’d be shopping for an old yj that would be road legal. Less than that isn’t realistic, sad but true. I have 30 acres, and work on a farm 3 miles up the road. One of these I could drive to “work” and use like crazy on my little farm. The farm I work at we have tons of farm roads, and I can actually drive there thru the fields.

I enjoy watching your videos. I have been looking for something like used golf cart or something like that for us to play on, use in the neighborhood and to take places. You cover about everything in your videos. Awesome job.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks Jay, I appreciate the kind words. I'll be honest, I do wonder at times if the audience will get tired of watching us test/demo new machines! Problem is, I am a total gear head that just loves to tinker with them. Appreciate you coming along for the fun!

[@davekent20]

Love it what is the top speed? Thanks dave.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Hey Dave! I took it to 40 mph and then decided to back off. Still breaking the enging in. It will move for sure.

[@james26sd]

I love my little mini jeep I ride it everywhere. I put in some accessory's too

[@brianmcdonald8459]

It's $6995 on their website but says out of stock. The model is GDK350.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It’s a placeholder. The unit on the website is the actual unit I have. There is only one that I know of. Price is still up in the air. It’s so cool!

[@a1locc25]

What’s that engine size. Looks like it needs a 3cyl swap heck idk it may have a 3 cylinder in there but you didn’t tell us the engine size.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Hey! It's 300 cc's. Still VERY little info on it. Should be discussing with Massimo this week and will keep everyone updated in the comments section.

[@TonysTractorAdventure]

I love it. I would like it to have 4 wheel drive with a winch.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It's a blast! Looking forward to doing some chores with it.

[@DeltaKilo77]

I'd like an LS swap option. On a serious note a small diesel option would be cool. It must have 4x4.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Diesel would be amazing; LS...EVEN BETTER!

[@gothops154]

What’s the link for this? I don’t see this model on tractor supply. I only see the smaller model

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It's not for sale yet, still brand new. I'm not sure TSC will carry this machine, time will tell!

[@keyper555]

Can it be made street legal? Also a roll bar with maybe a soft top option, place to mount a stereo/cb? Also a winch on front would be a good option. Maybe better higher backed seats. Oh the mind just reels with all the personal options I would install lol, some cool after market wheels would make this a very cool rig. I loved the 125 cc models and the thing people did with them but this just offers way more possibilities being much bigger. Looks like a ton of fun and a great perfect size to go explore trails and mountain roads. Definitely put some led driving light bars on it. Thanks for previewing this very cool Jeep for us, now if we just knew how much and when they will be available.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Excellent feedback; thank you! Not sure on street legal because that will vary by state. But don’t see why not. It drives great, could totally see people in a beach town or something running these all around! Thanks for watching

[@1sinister80]

LOL, tough terrain. I live in AZ. Your farm would be the nicest place to ride where I live. Im not sure we even have a place that smooth out here.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Cool man.

[@jeffella2748]

Hey Joe I wanted to ask is it chain ⛓️‍💥 driven or how does it put power to rear end

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Hey Jeff, it's cvt I believe. And top speed is north of 30 mph. I'm not taking it any faster! Lol. Thanks for watching

[@richlasavage7304]

Would be nice if you said who makes it what size the motor is and where it will be available

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Did you watch the video? I was very upfront in that it was brand new with little details. It has a 300cc motor. No date of availability yet

[@nat9909]

I would take as is, but I would have one of our welders reenforce the suspension brackets. The land that I own is pretty rough and undeveloped. I need something light and cheap that can use the "path" that the backhoe made into the interior. I am probably going for a quad, but this is a possibility.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It's light and nimble like a quad; but o 4x4. Plenty of power and steers great. Could be a cool hybrid work/play machine.

[@Petequinn741]

I live in area where you can drive golf carts on side roads..Id be using it all the time

[@sargemarine3709]

I am from, and live in Alabama. That was not a test, "we" would trust, as far as performance. Looking forward to the next one.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It will get a test my friend. Thanks for watching!

[@nomex1996]

The hole in the front is a design carryover from the original Willys jeep. It had a hand crank that went through that hole and to a nut on the crankshaft to start the engine.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

That's cool! I didn't know that. To me, my first thought was "It's a Willys!"

[@mkuhlman77]

Taking diff out of a quad easy enough to make 4x4. Can't wait to get one.

[@michaelhoffman1951]

Needs front hooks, larger coilover shocks all the way around,larger storage area in the rear, a top in case it rains, 4x4 w/ transfer case, larger radiator.

[@rlo5626]

Do u air down the tires. In Nevada we air them down much smoother ride.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

You could yes. Also will soften the shocks.

[@jamesbeemer2477]

Semi auto trans work better for towing or should be optional. Maby 4x4 and a 350 would be way better the steering rack looks extremely small. Everything else looks pretty good. I buy one definitely. But then again looks like a really nice entry level Sxs for young kids. Didn’t really think about who it was probably built for.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

All good points; great feedback. I think the mini jeep was so popular that the feedback said people wanted a bigger one. I had thousands of comments wanting a bigger one. Now, we will see if people actually buy it! It really is a cool little machine. And I fit very comfortably in it...surprisingly. I found myself hopping in the jeep more than other sxs's when just running around the property. Just a lot of fun!

[@thomasleonard9685]

More power is always good. 2 speed transfer case - would Be a blast to put a little Bigger tire on, and rock crawl In it.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Totally agree. A mini rock crawler would be a blast.

[@Anthony-gr2vo]

Not really sure if it is a good idea or not but I would like to get one in like a metal body tbh and maybe the ability to raise or lower the steering wheel

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I think it would be cool. May be better with an old Willys tho

[@nickclashez]

Need a top speed run and what size engine is in it and power it makes

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Needs to break in. Then we send it...

[@Projects815]

Top speed? Engine size?

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I took it to about 40 mph; engine is a 300cc liquid cooled engine. Pretty quick for such a small motor.

[@marshamorrison5438]

I need help I just bought a mini jeep 125cc 2 weeks ago and it won't start its brand new inside and out brand new could you please give me an idea of why it won't start after 2 weeks!

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Fuel, air or spark. Drain the carburetor and try again. You may have flooded it

[@marshamorrison5438]

@@JoeTheFarmer Thank you

[@marshamorrison5438]

@@JoeTheFarmer How do I drain carburetor? Can the gas evaporate from carburetor or do I have to take it out?

[@anthonyscott3659]

So golf cart size... that's cool

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Pretty much. The size is awesome...small enough to be nimble but big enough to comfortably ride.

[@ricardorose416]

Is the pricing on massimos website accurate? 7k? Hope not. I was excited to possibly get one. Anyways cool content

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Nah, They don't have a price dialed in yet. It really is cool! My guess is between 5 and 7 grand. There's a lot going on with it, so I get why it isn't cheap. But will need to be competitive. Thanks for watching!!!

[@JayG-ud7yb]

Where to order one?

[@JoeTheFarmer]

TBD

[@tomschonborg439]

I want easy to find and purchase spare parts. i.e. when it needs a brake job, I can get new pads and rotors. The gas can REALLY needs to be usable. Towing a small garden dump trailier (like you would tow behind a riding law mower) might make it handy for hunting.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Agreed. Parts should be available; but time will tell.

[@timothyloper7708]

What cc was the little red one and what cc is it

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Little one 125; bigger one 300

[@5teve..]

I've been using that gas tank on the mini Jeep for over 2 years. It's built for it, just don't overfill it, same as any other container for gas storage...

[@ChandlerHill-mb8my]

Hey Joe is there any way in the world I can get my hands on one of these? Legitimately… It’s the size and features I’d absolutely love to have. The little one just can’t do what I’m looking for. This is perfect! It’s simple but I like that. It’s automatic so my wife could drive it. I know it’s only a concept/preproduction but mannnnn! So wish I could buy one. I commented before saying it’s worth 4,000 but considering the business I’d say honestly it’ll be priced more in that 5-6500 dollar range. I’m so excited about it I just sure hope it becomes available.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Coming out in late August to dealers. Should be available soon.

[@Comeoffitman]

The music absconded the way the engine sounded on the wrangled as the side on side on it?

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Huh?

[@idushasiripathi]

Oh, they finally added 4 disc brakes. Earlier it had 2 disc brakes on the front but only 1 in the back, which is in the axel which is shared by both back wheels. But, they finally added 1 for each wheel which im happy about 😅

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It's a pretty awesome rig man, so much fun! Follow up video coming soon.

[@ericvan8137]

More engine and transmission details.Thats always the HEART of a machine!!

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Didn't have them until now. 300cc's and prob 30 hp. Still not much detail on it; but I know it's 300cc's

[@noway180]

Can Am Ryker 900 engine and transmission combo. There is plenty of automatic power. Always in the correct power band.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Would be killer!

[@MyClutteredGarage]

That looks like plain old fun, Joe!

[@JoeTheFarmer]

It is!!! So much fun...and way more useful than the little one. Thanks for watching Ed.

[@kevinlicklider6436]

Is the rear diff open or locked?

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I believe it is locked.

[@richardwalther6229]

These will sell great, now that adults fit. If only C90 Adventurers had one of these!! Pricing? Maybe $4000.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

That would be awesome!!!

[@ForestRJ]

4x4 and at minimum a 500cc motor, real steel bomber on front and a couple of hooks on front for work. This needs to be a sporty vehicle capable of working on the farm or just cruising the country roads. Fun is fun, but it should work some as well.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I agree; some utility makes it easier to spend the money. This machine will absolutely do some light duty work. Not heavy duty hauling, but it's a nice setup for a moderately sized property. As my buddies say; Sure Beats Walkin'!

[@brysoncase]

Top speed?

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I took it to 40 mph. Engine is still new so taking it easy.

[@harris8390]

At that price, I REALLY hope they sorted out the rattles and vibrations that happened with the previous Mini Jeep. Hell, even at what that one was priced it, the level of vibrations and rattles were bad. I also was reading that Chinese motorcycle engine manufacturers dont balance their crankshafts, which is a big culprit behind the shakiness and vibrations. Ag $6900 Id like to hope all of these issues are resolved!!!

[@becausehelivesministryintl6841]

[@101IplayWOW]

Manual transmission, 4x4 and some auxiliary switches would make it a great all rounder. I think it would be decently priced at around 7 thousand

Manual and 4x4 would be amazing. I think 5-6k is where it will land...but could be more. We will see!
