This is an inexpensive Kinsmart replica of the initial X-Class luxury style pickup truck done by Mercedes-Benz in conjunction with the Renault-Nissan group.

What's the length of this item so I can verify approximate scale?

It is listed as 1/42 on the bottom but it seems perhaps to be somewhat closer to 1/44 with a wheelbase of about 2.833" and an approximate overall length of 4.833".

Thanks for this info. I'll have to keep an eye out for one. Here are the calculations for a 124 inch wheel base per Google research which also indicates is it a badge engineered Nissan Navara.
In 43rd scale wheelbase would be 2.88"
In 44th scale wheelbase would be 2.81
And in the labeled 42nd scale wheelbase would be 2.95.
So is pretty close to 44th. Close enough for me.
